A 7-year-old child frequently gets colds, has a clear runny nose, and throat phlegm. They don’t want to get injections. What medication should they take?
When a child has a fever of 40 degrees, ibuprofen is a good choice, but it should be avoided for children under one year old. You can also use fever-reducing patches for physical cooling.
If a child has recurring fever, it is recommended to undergo a detailed blood routine examination to determine whether it is caused by viral or bacterial infection, and to receive targeted treatment. Parents should take good care of their child during treatment, ensuring they drink plenty of water and consume light, easily digestible food.
How to handle a 7-year-old child’s cough, nasal congestion, and other symptoms due to wind-cold cold?
How should you treat a two-year-old’s cough and runny nose?
Based on your description, the baby may be suffering from enteritis, leading to diarrhea and dehydration. It is recommended to take the baby to an internal medicine or gastroenterology clinic for a medical consultation. The doctor may prescribe appropriate medication, such as Mommy Love (which contains probiotics) and Simethicone (an adsorbent antidiarrheal). In addition, you can apply moxibustion therapy to help alleviate symptoms. Maintain a cheerful mood and ensure the baby consumes enough water to prevent dehydration.
The baby has been crying and not eating much lately. What medication should an 8-month-old baby take for diarrhea?
At the early stage of hand, foot, and mouth disease, attention should be paid to diagnosis and treatment, rest, and the use of traditional Chinese medicine, along with maintaining oral hygiene.
It is generally recommended that when a child has a fever of no more than 38 degrees, physical cooling methods can be adopted, such as using alcohol to wipe the body, or with warm water to wipe the face and forehead. If the fever exceeds 38 degrees, ibuprofen suspension (such as Merck) or naproxen can be considered.
When a baby has a fever of 38°C, you can use Merck to reduce the fever. For low-grade fever, physical cooling methods such as wiping the body with warm water or reducing clothing can be used to help lower body temperature. Additionally, make sure to give the baby plenty of water to stay hydrated. For a baby of four months and one month old, Merck is a common fever-reducing medicine, but adjust the dosage according to the child’s weight.
