Treatment for a 16-Month-Old Child with Colds, Runny Nose, and Mild Cough

For a 16-month-old baby who has had a cold for a week, with five days of clear runny nose transitioning to thick mucus, accompanied by slight coughing and no fever, it is recommended to use antibiotics for anti-infection treatment, along with cooling and detoxification therapy, and maintain a light diet and the habit of drinking plenty of water. As the condition has shown signs of improvement, it is suggested to continue treatment and pay attention to observing the child’s condition.

Parents should also pay attention to their child’s balanced diet and avoid picky eating habits.
