Dr Sameer awadhiyaGuardian of 2 children2 years agoA. Cough along with Cold and fever most of the time is a viral illness or allergic and it needs supportive care along with proper hydration needs to be maintained. you can give steam inhalation which may be useful .
cough needs to be treated with medicine like anti allergic expectorant bronchodilators antitussives or cough suppresents medicine which should be given only after a proper evaluation by the doctor according to the type of cough and need.
In severe cough nebulisation can be given where medicine directly gets dilivered in the respiratory tract.
Also if gyfever is there paracetamol can be given to reduce the fever and the dose is 15 mg/ kg body weight and can be repeated after 6 hours again if required .
Homef remedies like Tulsi & ginger mix in honey can be tried for soothing.

AbhayaMom of a 15 yr 8 m old boy2 years agoA. Hi mom
Give warm tulsi ginger honey water 3-4 times a day and apply vicks vaporub on the chest and throat to get relief from cough and cold.
Recurrent cold and cough can be due to low immunity.
Start giving chayawanprash to boost immunity
