When a 1-month old infant has a cough
My baby is 5- weeks old and he sneezes, has a runny and stuffy nose, and has a cough that seems to bother him. When I took him to the dr. she said that I can give him saline drops for his stuffy nose. She also checked his throat and said it was a little red, so she prescribed him amoxicillin for it. I've read online that a 5-week old baby is too young for medication, and that colds will clear up on their own. Am I right or is the Dr. right? Confused, please help.
