For home remedies you can try
1.Breastfeed your baby because breast milk contains antibodies which help the baby’s body build immunity against germs, viruses and bacteria.
2.Massage warm mustard oil infused with little garlic and carom seeds on the soles of the baby’s feet and chest.
3. Give warm soups.
4. Crush ginger and tulsi to extract the juice, and add honey before giving it to your baby. Take care and happy parenting.
