A. 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 cdold/ hatric 3/ sinarest. As a part of viral illness there could be associaterd symptoms like cough and fever which needs treatment accordingly along with a proper hydration needs to be maintained .

A. Hello dear parent! Try giving indirect steam inhalation. Add eucalyptus oil to the boiling water for better relief. Give turmeric milk for a couple of nights. Give warm water and warm freshly prepared homemade foods. Speak to your doctor for further advice. Regularly massage your baby with Babyhug daily massage oil for skin warmth
