A. give nasal saline drops every few hourly to the child in the nasal cavity. try to prevent temperature variations around the child you can go for indirect steam inhalation which will again help in decreasing both coughz and cold continue the regular diet of the child if there is no improvement in few days then meet your doctor for fever zand pain give paracetamol. anti-cold medicines at this age have got side effects so can be given only after medical consultation.
