A. it is important to keep the child hydrated. anti cold medicines are not given without medical consultation what you can give now is nasal saline drops which is salt water and can be given again and again to decrease nasal blockage as well as cough and cold try to prevent temperature variations around the child and keep the child well covered. can give indirect steam inhalation . anti-cold medicines at this age have got side effects so can be given only after medicdal consultation. you can use them but see that it is not causing any skin allergy. you can apply small amount on the chest and palms and soles and if it is not causing any skin allergy then you can use it further but do not apply on the face of the child
