We hope that everyone really understands that it is not good for a child so young to catch a cold. So let's take a look at the symptoms and treatment suggestions of a three-month-old baby's cold!

1. Children's cold, also known as acute upper respiratory tract infection (acute upper respiratory tract infection), is the most common disease in children. It mainly invades the nose, nasopharynx and pharynx. Therefore, diagnostic terms such as "acute nasopharyngitis" (cold), "acute pharyngitis" and "acute tonsillitis" are often used. They can also be collectively referred to as children's acute upper respiratory tract infection, referred to as "upper respiratory tract infection". Nasopharyngeal infection often leads to complications involving adjacent organs such as the larynx, trachea, lungs, mouth, sinuses, middle ear, eyes, and cervical lymph nodes. Sometimes the symptoms of the primary nasopharyngeal disease have improved or disappeared, but its complications may be delayed or aggravated. Therefore, it is necessary to comprehensively observe and analyze the clinical characteristics of upper respiratory tract infection and its complications in order to facilitate early diagnosis, early treatment and improved efficacy. It must not be treated lightly as a minor daily illness. A small number of children may die from central nervous system infection, septic shock or disseminated intravascular coagulation caused by cold viruses.

2. The following care measures can be taken when the baby has a cold:

1. Rest, drink plenty of water, and keep warm.

2. Common colds are mostly viral infections. Do not use antibiotics blindly. Use them reasonably under the guidance of a doctor.

3. If the baby has nasal congestion that affects feeding, the mother can apply a hot towel to the baby's nose and gently apply the nose before feeding to allow the mucus to flow out easily. Let your baby rest for a while halfway through a feeding, and turn his face on its side to eliminate the nasal congestion in the nostril facing upward. Pay attention to cleaning the nasal cavity at ordinary times. In many cases, the baby's mild cough is caused by the irritation of the mucus flowing into the nasopharynx, so some methods can be used to clear the sticky mucus, such as humidifying the air and using a nasal aspirator to relieve symptoms such as nasal congestion.

3. If the cold symptoms worsen, you can give your baby some Chinese patent medicines for treating children's colds, such as Tongrentang's Children's Cold and Heat-clearing Granules.

4. Pay attention to body temperature during this period. If you have a fever, you can take cooling measures. Generally, if the fever is below 38.5 degrees, no antipyretic drugs are needed, and physical cooling can be used; if the fever is above 38.5, antipyretic drugs can be used in combination with physical cooling, and see a doctor in time.
