A. Cough and Cold along with the symptom like Fever loss of appetite irritability could be a feature of viral infection or seasonal flu where most of the time supportive treatment is given. along with that cough expectorant and decongehustant with antiallergic medicine given. steam inhalation can be given frequently to relieve the symptoms.

A. Continuing to breastfeed during a cold or flu will not weaken the mother nor harm the baby, who will receive beneficial maternal antibodies to protect him/her from the infection. Products containing paracetamol or ibuprofen can be taken by breastfeeding women.
