Dr Vandan H KumarFather of a 7 yr 5 m old boy2 years agoA. nasal saline drops can be given again and again to the child because it is salt water which will help in decreasing the nasal blockage by clearing the mucus
try to prevent temperature variations around the child which is the most common cause of cough and cold in small children.can give indirec,t steam inhalation .
anti-cold medicines at this age have got side effects so can be given only after medical consultation.
for fever and pain give paracetamol
continue the regular diet which is being given to the child ,

Sonam PrasadMom of 2 children2 years agoA. hi dear
Babies under 6 months should only drink breast milk or formula, not water or juice. But you may offer more milk than usual for coughs or colds. It soothes sore throats and eases coughs. It may even work better for children than OTC cough medicines.
