Q.

#asktheexpert what's the treatment for cold in 2 yr old infants?

A. Wash his hands thoroughly with soap so that he avoids picking up germs from different surfaces. Feed him foods that are rich in phytochemicals, such as dark green, yellow, and red fruits and vegetables. Teach him to sneeze or cough into a tissue or the inside of his elbow and not his hands. The germs will stick around on his hands unless he washes them, making him more susceptible to catching a cold or cough. Let him get enough exercise regularly to help boost his immunity. Consistency is the key. Be watchful of how the methods you use are working and if something gives relief to the baby, continue with it. If something is triggering more mucus production and irritability in your baby, avoid it. If the cold and cough persist for more than a week, do see a paediatrician to confirm whether it’s a common cold and not a symptom of something else.
