Question
What should you do when an 8-month-old baby has a cold and fever?
Answer
A cold is caused by various pathogens and is a common disease in children, characterized by symptoms such as nasal congestion, runny nose, sneezing, dry cough, sore throat, and throat pain. It may also include fever, headache, general discomfort, and fatigue. You can use diclofenac sodium suppositories, not exceeding two times a day, or opt for ibuprofen suspension as a treatment option to help the child recover sooner.
