Dr Sameer awadhiyaGuardian of 2 children3 years agoA. you need to protect your child from Summer heat by keeping comfortable temperature and using cotton clothes .you can apply zoccon powder on the prickly heat rash area. The area should be kept dry and clean . You can give bath daily with lukewarm water using a mild WhatsApp like ok baby hug or sebamed . Additionally can allow the child to sleep in AC at a temperature maintaining 26 to 27 degree centigrade but try to avoid any direct air of cooler or AC over the baby.Cold is a viral disease that usually occurs with general symptoms,mainly nasal congestion .at times it can be allergic too.
steam inhalation would help in relieving congestion n soothing the irritation in nose and throat .you can give febrex AF/maxtra in a proper dose for 3-5 days as per the symptoms but only under medical guidance.for fever can give calpol 3 times a day .no self treatment should be done.give antibiotics only when prescribed.it may take upto two-three weeks also in recovery so dont worry if gradually symptoms are getting relieved,child will resume normal activities and eating thereafter.can give simple homemade food that's easily digestible ctan give banana too and avoid citrus fruits if required. can give bath also with lukewarm water.You should keep the room temperature comfortable for the baby and do not expose the baby to direct air of AC if used.
