Shortness of Breath, Like to Run a Nose and Cough a Few Times

Question

I’ve been feeling short of breath lately, and I occasionally cough a few times, sometimes with a sensation like I’m going to run a nose. What’s wrong with me?

Answer

This kind of symptom in babies is a manifestation of upper respiratory tract infection, usually accompanied by shortness of breath, coughing, and runny nose. If the baby has had a fever and the cough has improved, but they still feel short of breath, it is recommended to consult a doctor for a lung percussion examination to determine whether further treatment is needed. For mild symptoms, antibiotic and cough medicine can be considered for treatment. It is advisable to take the baby to see a doctor as soon as possible to receive an accurate diagnosis and treatment.
