A. Hello, your baby boy is 6.2 years old and he is having a severe cough so first deworm him and get his blood examined for Eosinophilia and then consult with paediatrician

Dr Sameer awadhiyaGuardian of 2 children3 years ago

A. Cough along with Cold most of the time is a viral illness and it needs supportive care along with proper hydration. you can give steam inhalation which is very useful . cough needs to be treated with anti allergic and expectorant bronchodilators or antitussives medicine which should be given only after ajg proper evaluation by the doctor according to the type of cough. if fever is there paracetamol can be given to reduce the fever and the dose can be repeated after 6 hours again if required .
