A. at this age you can go for limited number of home remedies. you can give tulsi and ginger juice diluted with water 3 times per day. you can apply baby vicks if the child is not allergic to it. boiling water with carom seeds (ajwain) and tulsi leaves can help relieve coughing. it also helps in the relief of chest congestion. massages are most effective for cdhildren under two years of age. massage the baby's chest, back, and neck with mustard oil and garlic. cover the baby's palms and feet with zthe oil for immediate comfort. keep the child hydrated with water juice and milk. you can give turmeric with milk as well as water.
