Question

The baby coughs during naps but not when awake, and there is no phlegm. No previous treatment has been received. I hope to understand what this situation is and how to make the baby feel better.

Answer

This condition could be bronchitis, often related to catching a cold, not treating a fever promptly, or having a low immune system. It is recommended to undergo a chest X-ray and blood test for diagnosis. If the cough produces phlegm, you can administer ambroxol oral solution; if there is no phlegm, you can take a non-sedative cough syrup. Also, ensure warmth and avoid catching a cold.
