Question
My 10-month-old baby has been experiencing a runny nose for over half a month, accompanied by tonsillitis. We have previously taken ribavirin and silver and gold granules, but when we went to the hospital the other day, the doctor said that the tonsillitis has improved slightly and suggested continuing with the silver and gold granules. However, the runny nose issue remains unresolved. I would like to ask if there are any other solutions.
Answer
I suggest trying oral antiviral medication and fever-reducing syrup. Even viral fever can lead to secondary bacterial infection, so it’s best to use antibiotics at the same time. If oral medication is ineffective, I recommend seeking intravenous treatment, as this can help control the infection more quickly and effectively.
