If your baby has a cough and runny nose without fever, you may administer pediatric cold granules or Jiegan Granules to alleviate symptoms. Additionally, an appropriate dose of cough syrup may be given. Dietary considerations are also important: avoid overly spicy or salty foods, as they may irritate the throat and worsen the condition. Instead, offer easily digestible foods such as millet porridge or egg drop soup.
