A. Cough along with Cold and fever most of the time is a viral illness or allergic and it needs supportive care along with proper hydration needs to be maintained. you can give steam inhalation which may be useful . cough needs to be treated with medicine like anti allergic expectorant bronchodilators antitussives or cough suppresents medicine which should be given only after a proper evaluation by the doctor according to the type of cough and need. In severe cough nebulisation can be given where medicine directly gets dilivered in the respiratory tract. Also if fever is there paracetamol can be given to reduce the fever and the dose is 15 mg/ kg body weight and can be repeated after 6 hours o again if required . Home remedies like Tulsi & ginger mix in honey can be tried for soothing.

A. Madam don’t give any medicines to the child without consulting the doctor that we do not consider right which is why it’s better to consult your paediatrician one time whatever medicine your doctor advises you as per the need please go ahead with that right now also viral is spreading quite a lot better to go ahead with a medication only suggested by you
