A. This may due to either allergy or infection and some times due to climate changes and temperature variations . For cold you can give drops wikoryl AF 0.5 ml to the child 2-3 times per day. try to prevent temperature variations around the child and give nasal saline drops frequently for nasal blockage, simple cough and cold. Indirect steam is helpful. Home remedies like Tulsi Ginger diluted with water combination (honey can be added after 1 year age)and turmeric wcith milk at least 2 times per day. Give warm water to drink If no improvement in 2 or 3 days then meet your doctor paracetamol for fever and pain.

A. hi dear Use a cool-mist humidifier in your baby's room. Moist air can reduce congestion and make breathing easier. Apply moisturizing ointment. A light dab of petroleum jelly under your baby's nose can help prevent red skin, chapping, and soreness.
