A. Cold is a viral disease that usually occurs with symptoms like sneezing, running nose, cough ,sore throat, nasal congestion and fever.at times it can be allergic too. Treatment consists of antihistamines antipyretics analgesics and decongestants . steam inhalation would help in relieving congestion n soothing the irritation in nose and throat .you can give sinarest/wikoryl /ascoril flu cold in a proper dose according to the weight for 3-5 days as per the symptoms but it will be better to take only under medical guidoance.so please get examination and treatment done by your pediatrician it will be better.no self treatment should be done.it may take upto two weeks also in recovery so dnkot worry if gradually symptoms are getting relieved.child will resume normal activities thereafter.

A. good evening I would not recommend you to give any medicine to the child without going to the doctor it is advisable to try to visit a doctor for a proper examination and then give medicine as prescribed
