POOJA KOTHARIMom of a 8 yr 5 m old boy4 months agoA. For managing a cold and cough, it's important to ensure proper rest, stay hydrated, and maintain a balanced diet. For mild cold symptoms, warm fluids like soups, herbal teas, and warm water with honey and lemon can soothe the throat and relieve congestion. Using a humidifier or saline nasal drops can help with nasal congestion, and steam inhalation may provide relief for coughing. If the symptoms persist for more than a week or worsen, consult a doctor to check if it's a viral infection or something that needs further medical treatment, especially if the child has a fever, difficulty breathing, or persistent coughing. Avoid giving over-the-counter cough medicines without a doctor's advice, particularly in young children.
