Question
My baby is 8 months old and has been feeling phlegm in her throat since she was 6 months old. The medication hasn’t helped much. A month ago, she had a fever and developed a rash. For the past two days, it sounds like she’s wheezing when I listen to her throat. I just gave her cough syrup granules and amoxicillin granules. The baby’s appetite has been poor lately, and she occasionally drools.
Answer
The baby’s condition is mainly due to illness, which is why she experiences a poor appetite again. It is recommended to ensure the baby gets plenty of rest, drinks more water, and take the prescribed medication diligently. If necessary, anti-inflammatory medication can be taken to reduce the fever.
