How many types of colds are there in babies?
Disease description:
The baby has caught a cold several times in the past month, but each time the symptoms were different, and the doctor prescribed different medications. I'm really confused. I'd like to ask, how many types of colds are there for babies?

Dr. Zhou Xiaofeng
There are four types: wind-cold, wind-heat, summerheat-dampness, and summerheat. For the first two types, patients may experience common symptoms such as nasal congestion, coughing, and headache. However, if it is wind-cold, additional symptoms such as chills and absence of sweating may appear; if it is wind-heat, symptoms such as fever and thick phlegm may occur. In addition, the latter two types generally present symptoms like headache and abdominal pain, which can be relieved with products such as Huoxiang Zhengqi Water (Agastache Wholesome Qi Water) and Honeysuckle Dew. However, please note thatHuoxiang Zhengqi Water is recommended for use in individuals aged 14 years and older.
