Dr Vandan H KumarFather of a 7 yr 4 m old boy3 years agoA. continue to give nasal saline drops and the voice will improve in one week to maximum two weeks
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 cough and cold
Continue the regular diet of the child
If there is no improvement in few days then meet your doctor
For fever and pain give paracetamol.
Anti-cold medicines at this age have got side effects so can be given only after medical consultation.
