Question
Why is my 9-month-old baby coughing and now has diarrhea? Previous treatment and outcome: I have seen a pediatrician and taken some medication. What kind of help do I need?
Answer
Coughing in a 9-month-old baby is typically caused by a cold or bronchitis. Coughing due to cold or bronchitis can also affect intestinal function, leading to mild nausea or vomiting. Additionally, oral medications may have some impact on the gastrointestinal tract, potentially causing nausea or vomiting. It is important to ensure adequate hydration by drinking plenty of water. If vomiting is severe, oral medication for treatment may be necessary.
