A. Give nasal saline drops every few hourly to the child in the nasal cavity. Try to prevent temperature variations around the child You can go for indirect steam inhalation which will again help in decreasing both cough and cold Continue the regular diet of the child If there is no improvement in few days then meet your doctors For fever and pain give paracetamol.s Anti-cold medicines at this age have got side effects so can be given only after medical consultation. x

A. Hello dear parent! Try giving indirect steam inhalation twice a day. Regularly massage your baby with Babyhug cold pressed coconut oil for skin warmth. Keep your doctor posted about any changes or developments. Continue breastfeeding. Good luck and take care.
