Question
What should I do if my 5-month-old baby starts coughing with phlegm two days after receiving a vaccine?
Answer
If a 5-month-old baby experiences a cough with phlegm following vaccination and is in good spirits, administer expectorant medicine to clear the lungs and phlegm. If the body temperature does not exceed 38.5°C, avoid using fever-reducing medication and ensure plenty of water intake and consume light, nourishing food. If the baby’s spirits are low, seek medical attention and examination promptly.
