As the first line of treatment, give steam .to relieve blocked nose and nasoclear drops can also be given multiple times. Cough Syrup or nebulization should be given only after a proper evaluation according to the type of cough .self medication may not be so helpful so please consult your doctor once. if the cough is productive you can give brozeet-ls or ambrodil syrup fodr now only n continue only after doctor's advice.avoid refrigerated items and give simple home-made preparations a required.child may not be interested in foiod due to altered sensations of taste bud in illness will gradually begin to eat as symptoms resolve.
