A. Cough is a protective reflex of the body to expel out the mucus or any irritant factor from the respiratory tract which is most of the time assosiated with cold due to any viral or bacterial infection . A proper examination is required to find the cause . As a home remedy you can start with steam inhcalation . Cough can be treated with cough suppressant or antitussives as per the cause. For cold f antihistamines are useful and nasal saline drops are also benifecial .

A. Give Steam to your child you can use it in directly onto the child that will help in opening up the nasal blockage you can also use nasal drops if it is required and if you have a nebuliser at home you can nebulise your child also if you do not have medicines you can use water as well so do it as of now and consult your paediatrician tomorrow
