Dr Sameer awadhiyaGuardian of 2 children3 years agoA. If baby has symptoms of cough and cold it may last for few days or couple of weeks depending on the severity of infection which may be viral usually.
If there is fever above 99 Fahrenheit you need to give paracetamol 3 times a day to the child.
In case of nasal congestion in cold you can give steam which is the best remedy as well as you can use nasomist saline drops many times in a day one drop in each nostril. In case of cough, the syrup is advised according to the type of cough (dry or productive)which needs to be examined before prescribing the medicine.
If there a'wtre aggravated symptoms due to cough and cold ,any breathing difficulty the baby has dehydration and not taking feed properly a physical examination is important for which you should contact your treating pediatrician.

AbhayaMom of a 15 yr 9 m old boy3 years agoA. Hi mom
Liquid coming out of ears is the pus which is due to infection in ear.
For this you need to consult your doctor for the same as he will prescribe medicine after the proper evaluation of the baby.
Take care
