A. Hi parent Steam can be given using the steam machine but from safe distance as she's too young. Keep a bowl full of chopped onion near her bed approx three feet far overnight. If she's more than six months , she can be given lukewarm water for drinking Don't expose her to winds , air blows , dirt. Don't use RO water
