Question
What should I do if my two-month-old baby has a cough with phlegm in the throat?
Answer
Considering that the baby may have a cold, common symptoms include coughing, phlegm, and fever. If the body temperature exceeds 37 degrees when measured, it is considered a fever. You can give the baby infant paracetamol and chlorpheniramine granules for treatment and ensure they drink plenty of water. Keeping the baby warm is very important, and intravenous treatment may be necessary if needed.
