Dr Sameer awadhiyaGuardian of 2 children4 years agoA. Cold is a viral disease that may occur with symptoms like sneezing, running nose, cough ,sore throat, nasal congestion and fever.at times it may be allergic too.
Treatment consists of antihistamines antipyretics analgesics and decongestants .
steam inhalation would help in relieving congestion n soothing the irritation in nose and throat .
Medicines like sinarest/wikoryl / Alex cold can be given in a prHshoper dose according to the weight for 3-5 days as per the symptoms but it it will be better to take only under medical guidance.so please get examination and treatment done by your pediatrician it will be better.it is not advisable to self medicate

SanthoshiMom of a 8 yr old girl4 years agoA. you may can try with saline drops as it's quite effective. steaming will also give instant relief. Keep baby hydrated. Keep your baby's head high for better breathing. You may warm some coocnut oil add some tulsi leaves and apply to baby's chest and sole for relief. You may alos apply warm mustard oil infused with sole garlic pods. Alo'g Ith it it's good to give medicines too.
