Question
The two-month-old baby has had symptoms of nasal congestion and cough for the past few days. The parents have already given treatment, but the situation seems to have not improved. How should it be handled?
Answer
The baby’s condition may be due to a cold, which could lead to bronchitis or pneumonia. If the cough persists for a long time, it is recommended to use Pulilike cough syrup and ambroxol syrup. At the same time, parents should frequently pat the baby’s back to help expel phlegm. If symptoms do not improve, antibiotic treatment may be necessary, and medication should be taken for at least three consecutive days.
