Question
A two-month-old baby has been suffering from a cold, with symptoms improving but persistent coughing and nasal congestion remaining. The baby experienced diarrhea after taking medication. Seeking simple methods to help relieve the baby’s nasal congestion.
Answer
Based on the description, two dietary therapy methods are suggested that may help with the baby’s cough: Honey Silver Ear Soup and Lily and Hawthorn Soup. The Honey Silver Ear Soup is made by soaking the silver ear, boiling it in a pot until it becomes thick, adding honey and osmanthus, pouring it over the cooked silver ear, and then adding sliced hawthorn paste. The Lily and Hawthorn Soup involves boiling lily bulbs, slicing the hawthorn paste, and boiling both with sugar water. Trying these methods may yield significant relief.
