A. Hi mommy Some common home remedies you can use for common cold are : A spoonful of honey Plenty of fluids Saline spray Humidifier Sponge bath Extra pillows Vicks VapoRub Give nasal saline drops every few hourly to the child in the nasal cavity. try to prevent temperature variations around the child you can go for indirect steam inhalation which will again help in decreasing both cough and cold continue the regular diet of the child if there is s no improvement in few days then meet your doctor for fever and pain give paracetamol. anti-cold medicines at this age have got side effects so can be given only after medical consultation.
