If a child has hiccups, abdominal pain, and poor appetite, it may be due to diaphragmatic spasm caused by cold stimulation. It is recommended to give the child warm water to drink and massage the abdomen to relieve the discomfort.

An 11-month-old baby has been suffering from persistent coughing, hiccups, and a hoarse voice for 15 days. For the past 10 days, there have been symptoms of coughing, sneezing, and a sore throat, with the cough being more severe in the morning and evening. Each cough produces two to three sounds, and there is a sensation of phlegm. What should be done? The baby has been taking Ettanquity and Xike lao twice a day, but the effect is not significant. What medication should be taken? Thank you.
