A. Cough along with Cold and fever most of the time is a viral illness or allergic and it needs supportive care along with proper hydration needs to be maintained. you can give steam inhalation which may be useful .
cough needs to be treated with medicine like anti allergic expectorant bronchodilators antitussives or cough suppresents medicine which should be given only after a proper evaluation by the doctor according to the type of cough and need.
In severe cough nebulisation can be given where medicine directly gets dilivered in the respiratory tract.
Also tif fever is there paracetamol can be given to reduce the fever and the dose is 15 mg/ kg body weight and can be jrepeated after 6 hours again if required .

A. Hello dear parent! Your doctor would know the best after personal evaluation. Keep your doctor posted about your concerns. Try giving indirect steam inhalation. Regularly massage your baby with Babyhug cold pressed coconut oil. Continue feeding your baby well on demand.
