A. Cold is most of the time because of viral illness and if the child is having recurrent running nose and nasal congestion it may be a part of allergic rhinitis also so it needs a proper examination. steam inhalation will be beneficial in both the cases along with decongestant medicine like alex cold/ hatric 3/ sinarest. As a part of viral illness there could be associated symptoms like cough and fever whifsch needs treatment accordingly along with a proper hydration needs to be maintained .

A. Yes Absolutely you can breastfeed the child but since you’re having cough also it’s better that you use a mask when you’re feeding the child so that you do not transfer your infection to the child by mistake and also ask your doctor for a better medicines and anti-allergy is which will help in subsiding this issue
