Dr Vandan H KumarFather of a 7 yr 4 m old boy1 Year agoA. cough and cold medicine is given according to the requirement and examination so do not give any medicine without medical consultation.
if given without consultation coughing medicine can aggravate the problem.
you can go for home remedies like tulsi ginger (honey is added when child is more than 1 year of age) combination which can be diluted with waterx and given frequently to the child.
also you can give turmeric with milk one or two times everyday.
give warm water xto drink as well as nasal saline drops frequently. give warm diet
try to prevent temperature variations around the child that is from hot to cold and cold to hot environment .
