A. any cough most of the time either it could be allergic or infective which needs proper evaluation. initially you can start by giving steam inhalation to your baby which will help in relieving symptoms to some extent and will make the baby comfortable.for small baby should be given indirectly from a distance.cough suppressants are usually avoided in children,it needs to be examined first before giving any kind of meafodicine. so it will be better if you consult your doctor for proper guidance along with proper dosage for the kind of problem.

A. Hello dear parent! Try giving indirect steam inhalation to reduce the discomfort. Warm up coconut oil with crushed camphor. Apply this mixture to the baby’s chest, throat, back and feet soles gently twice a day. Give warm water to drink. Speak to your doctor for further advice. Good luck and take care.
