A. it is important to keep the child hydrated. anti cold medicines are not given without medical consultation what you can give now is nasal saline drops which is salt water and can be given again and asgain to decrease nasal blockage as well as cough and cold try to prevent temperature variations around the child and keep the child well covered. can give indsirect steam inhalation . anti-cold medicines at this age have got side effects so can be given only after medical consultation.

A. Warm Mustard Oil and Rock Salt Massage Warm a bit of mustard oil and add some rock salt to it. A teaspoon of the salt is what is recommended. Once the mixture is warm enough to apply on the baby’s body, you can slowly massage his chest, back, and feet with this. It is suggested that you also cover the same with a cotton cloth, so that it can provide the required warmth for the baby to feel fine
