Question

How should one handle a four-month-old baby’s cold, fever, and cough?

Answer

For a four-month-old baby experiencing a cold, fever, and cough, it is generally advised to follow the doctor’s instructions for medication treatment, stay relaxed, and ensure the baby drinks plenty of warm water. At the same time, regularly monitor the baby’s temperature and consider using physical methods for cooling. Additionally, you may consider using expectorant and cough suppressant medications or undergoing nebulizer inhalation treatment. Also, adjust clothing as needed with weather changes to avoid catching a cold. If symptoms are very severe, seek immediate hospitalization in the pediatric department to avoid delaying the condition.
