A. Give lots of fluids like plain water, coconut water, warm soups, broths etc. Give citrus fruits to eat. You can give orange juice or lemon juice with honey. Give saline nasal drops. Make sure that the child takes a lot of rest. Indirect steam helps. Heat mustard oil with 2-3 garlic cloves and a few kalonji seeds. Once the oil cools down, while it is still warm you need to apply this oil on your child's chest, neck, back and sole of the feet. It helps.
