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

A. hi...Check with paediatric for saline water nasal spray. At home you can try eucalyptus oil/vicks on a cloth near her head, or sek through ajwain potli. Please DO NOT apply vicks vaporub on her skin directly, it can cause harm to baby's skin.
