A nine-month-old baby with bronchial pneumonia is hospitalized with low immunity, only 36. After receiving two bottles of intravenous immune globulin yesterday, the baby started coughing constantly this morning and the fever did not subside. The hospital administered antipyretic injections. Could this be a side effect of the immune globulin? Should the baby receive the immune globulin as the doctor suggested? The nurse has been advising us to focus on the immune globulin treatment after the body temperature drops. Are there many risks associated with this treatment? The community hospital says that after receiving the globulin, the baby needs to wait three months before getting vaccinated, but some say it’s a year. How long should it be? The baby also suddenly wakes up crying during afternoon naps, which was not the case before. Before hospitalization, there were only phlegm issues due to mycoplasma pneumonia one month ago. Is immune globulin mainly used for immunosuppression and does it increase body resistance? Can it be injected if the child is chronically ill? What should we pay attention to in terms of rest and diet, and which spicy and irritating foods should we avoid? How should we decide to inject immune globulin based on the child’s condition? Does the baby’s symptoms indicate poor immune system function and require further detailed examination and standardized treatment? Does paying attention to hygiene habits help in the recovery of the illness?
The baby used to have bad trachea whenever it coughed, and had to be given intravenous drips. Now, after finding an elderly Chinese medicine practitioner and taking traditional Chinese medicine, there has been some improvement, but it’s still prone to repeated infections. How can we boost the baby’s immunity?
Nasal congestion while a child sleeps at night may be caused by a viral cold, typically lasting 3 to 5 days and resolving on its own. Parents should monitor the child’s temperature and mental state, and take oral medication while ensuring plenty of hydration. If the congestion is severe, a warm compress can help alleviate symptoms.
