A. Home remedies like Tulsi Ginger diluted with water combination (honey can be added after 1 year age)and turmeric with milk at least 2 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. For cold you can give drops wikoryl AF 0.5 ml to the child 2-3 times per djay. This may due to either allergy or infection and some times due to climate changes and temperature variations . If fever is present give paracetamol.

A. hi dear Apply saline nasal drops, wait for a short period, and then use a suction bulb to draw mucus out of each nostril. Moisten the air. Running a cool-water humidifier in your baby's room can ease nasal congestion. Change the water daily and follow the manufacturer's instructions for cleaning the unit.
