Question
A four-month-old boy was found to have lost his voice on the 23rd. His symptoms include a cold, cough, and laryngitis, and he is very fussy. Today, his voice is particularly weak, and he seems almost unable to make a sound. What should we do?
Answer
I’m glad to help you with your question. A four-month-old baby who loses his voice due to a cold and crying is likely suffering from pediatric pharyngitis. It is recommended to take the child to the hospital for nebulizer inhalation therapy and a systematic examination of the throat. Measure the body temperature; if there is persistent laryngitis, it may be accompanied by fever, and timely fever reduction and symptomatic treatment are needed.
