Question

My two-and-a-half-year-old child has been frequently coughing and sneezing recently, especially worse at night. The throat is red and swollen with pain, but there is no fever. I gave an oral liquid treatment last night.

Answer

The symptoms you described may be due to inflammation. Since children have weaker resistance and are more sensitive to external stimuli, they are prone to discomfort. It is recommended that you take your child to see a doctor for appropriate treatment and avoid self-medicating. At the same time, pay attention to nursing care, keep warm, feed them reasonably, adjust clothing according to weather changes, maintain good indoor ventilation, reduce contact with sick people to prevent cross-infection, and maintain a healthy lifestyle.
