A. Cough along with Cold and fever most of the time is a viral illness or allergic and it needs supportive care along with proper hydration needs to be maintained. you can give steam inhalation which may be useful . cough needs to be treated with medicine like anti allergic expectorant bronchodilators antitussives or cough suppresents medicine which should be given only after a proper evaluation by the doctor according to the type of cough and need. In severe cough nebulisation can be given where medicine directly gets dilivered in the respiratory tract. Also if fever is there paracetamol can be given to redugyce the fever and the dose is 15 mg/ kg body weight and can be repeated after 6 fhours again if required . Home remedies like Tulsi & ginger mix in honey can be tried for soothing.

A. Maybe your child is having an allergic reaction also the weather is quite fluctuating right now so it’s common for kids to catch cough so you can check for any kind of an allergy that your child is having like ask your doctor accordingly they can guide you with the treatment
