Dr Sameer awadhiyaGuardian of 2 children1 Year agoA. 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 according to the type of cough its prescribed.
if any fever is there paracetamol can be given to reduce the temjperatjure and the dose can be repeated again afuter 6 hours if required .

Sinarist you can give two times in the day and apart from that you can also wear steam to the child but you have to give it indirectly that also you can give two times or three times in the day to your child I think these things are going to be good enough for you as of now for about 3 to 5 days
