A. no give nasal saline drops every few hourly to the child in the nasal cavity. try to prevent temperature variations around the child you can go for indirect steam inhalation which will again help in decreasing both cough and cold continue the regular diet of the child if there is no imprfovement in few days then meet your doctor for fever and pain give paracetamol. anti-cold medicines at this age have got side effects so can be given only after medical consultation.

A. The dosage and frequency of any medication depends on the severity of the illness and the babys weight. So its better if you can get the baby examined by your doctor once and follow his advice on this. And not every cold will need a medication.
