Dr Sameer awadhiyaGuardian of 2 children4 years agoA. Cold is most of the time because of viral illness and if the child is having recurrent running nose and nasal congestion it may be a part of allergic rhinitis also so it needs a proper examination.
steam inhalation will be beneficial in both the cases along with decongestant medicine like alex cold/ hatric 3/ sinarest.
As a part of viral illness there could be associated symptoms like cough and fever which needs treatmttent accordingly along with a proper hydration needs to be maintained .

Nope It is not going to affect your child in any manner if you’re having cold and cough you know it would be better that you use a mask whenever you are breastfeeding your child so that you do not transmit your affection to the child that way but in terms of breastfeeding nothing is going to happen
