Question
A one-month-old baby has been coughing for a month without producing any phlegm, and there is no fever. However, the baby’s face appears slightly yellow. Is this situation normal?
Answer
It is recommended to take traditional Chinese herbs such as bupleurum, pueraria, coptis, and lonicera, which have antiviral properties and are not available in Western medicine. It is advised to pay attention to vitamin intake daily, consuming more foods rich in vitamins C, E, and red fruits, such as tomatoes, apples, grapes, dates, strawberries, beets, oranges, watermelons, milk, and eggs, to prevent the recurrence of colds.
