Question
My child is ten months old and has slight nasal congestion without any runny nose, along with a slight cough. Can I give him Huitong Pediatric Paracetamol Phenylephrine Sulfate Granules?
Answer
Nasal congestion is usually caused by localized swelling and inflammation in the nasal area, leading to the accumulation of secretions. If the congestion is not severe, it may indicate that the inflammation within the nasal cavity is also not severe, even without obvious runny nose. It could still be a symptom of an upper respiratory infection. In this case, it is recommended that you consider using the medication you mentioned for treatment to help the condition recover quickly. At the same time, it is also advisable to use symptomatic anti-inflammatory medication and cough suppressants as assist treatment.
