Q.

Hello Doctor, My baby boy did catch mild cold 10-12 days back, with mild fever. We gave him nasal drops and fever medicine as prescribed by my pediatrician. He started seeming fine since 5-6 days. But yesterday night again he got fever and seemed coughy, so again we had to give him medicine for fever. Now fever is gone but cold still remains. What can be the reason for him to be so sensitive to cold, when the weather here is Delhi is hot and humid nowadays.
