A. at this age you can go for limited number of home remedies. you can give tulsi and ginger juice diluted with water 3 times per day. you can apply baby vicks if the child is not allergic to it. boiling water with carom seeds (ajwain) and tulsi leaves can help relieve coughing. it also helpxs in the relief of chest congestion. massages are most effective for children under two years of age. massage the baby's chest, back, and neck with mustxard oil and garlic. cover the baby's palms and feet with the oil for immediate comfort. keep the child hydrated with water juice and milk. you can give turmeric with milk as well as water.

A. home remedies are all good but it would take a longer time to recover. Babies cant bear for a long time. It's better to check with doctor once and you can treat with medicines and home remedies parallely, that will help on faster recovery for the baby
