Dr Sameer awadhiyaGuardian of 2 children1 Year agoA. u 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 fever 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 aghain if required .

RashmiMom of a 10 yr 11 m old girl1 Year agoA. It’s probably viral infection because viral is spreading quite a lot these days is the feather is fluctuating so could be due to weather change or swift in the weather so I’m just going to suggest you have a check up with your paediatrician and accordingly they can guide you with medicines that you can offer to the child for this particular situation
