RashmiMom of a 11 yr old girl4 years agoA. Give Indirect steam in halation to the child and I am not aware about the age of your child so would not be able to advise you with any medicine as well as the dosage of the medicine so it would be more sensible for you to get in touch with your paediatrician and get a check up done and go ahead with the medicines prescribed by the doctor
