A. For a 20-month-old with cough and cold, it’s important to use medications designed for children and only give the appropriate dosage as prescribed by a pediatrician. Generally, saline nasal drops can help relieve nasal congestion, and warm fluids like soup or honey water (if your child is over 1 year old) can soothe the throat. For cough, pediatric syrups with ingredients like tulsi, ginger, or ambroxol may be recommended, but dosage must be age-specific. Avoid over-the-counter cold medicines unless prescribed. If symptoms persist, worsen, or are accompanied by fever, consult your doctor for proper evaluation and medication.
