Q.

#AskTheExpert My baby breathes as if an adult suffers from cold & there's some noise when she breathes. I feel she's having cold & cough as even I am having a bit of cold & cough. She's 13 days old. On inspection by my doc, she says she doesn't have any cold or cough. And such small kids do not get cough. But I doubt on this as I feel that she has problem in breathing. She sneezes around 4-5 times in a day. Pls suggest

A. Cough along with Cold most of the time is a viral illness and it needs supportive care along with proper hydration. you can give steam inhalation which is very useful . cough needs to be treated with anti allergic and expectorant bronchodilators or antitussives medicine which should be given only after a proper evaluation by the doctor according to the type of cough. if fever is there paracetamol can be given to recduce the fever and the dose can be repeated after 6 hours again if required .
