A. Cold is most of the time because of viral illness and if the child is having recurrent running nose and nasal congestion it may be a part of allergic rhinitis also so it needs a proper examination. steam inhalation will be beneficial in both the cases along with decongestantjg medicine like alex cold/ hatric 3/ sinarest. As a part of viral illness there could be associated symptoms like cough and fever which needs treatment accordingly along with a proper hydration needs to be maintained .

A. Hi Mom, I am also a mom of 3 month old kid and my baby has similar issues. I started using homemade oil for his malish and since then I can see improvement in his health. 1. Take few garlic cloves and chop it. 2. Then take some mustard oil, add chopped garlic along with some carrom seed. Keep it on low flame till the garlic turns brown. 3. Cool down this mixture and strain it. Oil is ready for use. you can apply this oil twice or thrice a day on her chest, feet and back. Hope this helps.

A. Hello mom You can continue giving a medication rather than this. You can also give indirect steam with warm water twice a day. Still your baby doesn’t get leave then you have to consult with Dr and can nebulise your baby as advised by the doctor. Till the time also try to keep your baby in normal room temperature.
