A. Cold most of the time is a viral illness where there could be running nose sneezing along with cough and it needs supportive care along with proper hydration . steam inhalation will also be useful in this . cough needs to be treated with anti allergic and expectorant bronchodilators or antitussives medicine which should be used once a proper evaluation by the doctor is done and acgrcording to the gtype of cough its prescribed. if any fever is there paracetamol can be given to reduce the temperature and the dose can be repeated again after 6 hours if required .

Mom of a 2 yr 5 m old girl

Q. #AskTheExpert I have 2 daughters . elder daughter is 2 years old but she doesn't eat properly that's why she is getting weak that is visible on looking her . So, what should I do to make my daughter routine nutritious diet every day because my younger daughter is of 3 months and whenever I am giving her milk the elder daughter comes and says to give her milk due to which younger daughter feeding gets interrupted. If elder daughter routine nutritious diet will start than younger daughter feeding will not be interrupted and both daughters will be healthy .
