Question

What should I do if my 70-day-old baby has a cough?

Answer

Your baby’s condition may be due to wind-cold common cold cough, caused by exposure to wind and cold. The symptoms typically include frequent coughing, thin, white sputum, clear nasal discharge, pale or slightly red tongue with thin coating, and a heavy cough sound. There may also be headaches and fever, or even rapid breathing. Treatment can include using Sanao Decoction combined with medication for reducing phlegm and expectoration.
