Dr Vandan H KumarFather of a 7 yr 4 m old boy1 Year agoA. there is no problem in in going in a flight.
the important thing is that you have to to make sure that the child does not come in contact with more people.
during takeoff and landing it is important that the child should be given feeding or a pacifier to decrease the air pressure in the ear which will again help in decreasing the the ear pain during the flight.
you have to keep with yourself painkiller like paracetamol which may be needed to decrease the pain if the child cries excessively.
your personal doctor will tell you more whether your child is physically compatible for a flight ride or not
nasal saline drops can be given again and again to the child because it is salt water which will help in decreasing the nasal blockage by clearing the mucus
try to prevent temperature variations around the child which is the most common cause of cough and cold in small children.can givef indirect steam inhalation .
anti-cold medicines at this age have got side effects so can be given only after medical consultation.
for fever and pain give paracetamol
continue the regular diet which is being given to the child
