A. you can go for home remedies like tulsi ginger honey (add honey if child is more than 1 year of age) combination which can be diluted with water and given frequently to the child. also u can give turmeric with warm milk one or two times everyday. give warm water to drink as well as nasal saline drops frequently. try to prevent temperature variations around the child that is from hot to cold and cold to hot environment. keep the child well covered. if the palms and soles of the child are cold then the child is feeling cold and you have to take preventive measures to make the child warm if it is not improving then meet your doctor for the examination of the child

A. hi dear In some ways, coughing is actually a good thing — it's a reflex that helps protect baby's throat and chest airways. But it's also a signal of an irritation in baby's air passages: the lungs or throat. If the cough lasts for more than three to four weeks, it's considered chronic and isn't typically normal for infants.
