A. nasal saline drops can be given again and again to the child because it is salt water which will help in decreasing the nasal blockage by clearing the mucus try to prevent temperature variations around the child which is the most common cause of cough and cold in small children.can give indirect steam inhalation . anti-cold medicines at this age have got side effects so can be given sonly after medical consultation. for fever and pain give paracetamol continue the regular diet which is being given to the child

A. If the doctor is a doctor would be online motor they should be helping you with the medication but still I would advise you to either consult a doctor on a personal level. I go ahead with doctors connect on the First Cry up. This way you will be able to interact with the doctor on a personal level.
