A. To help your 5-year, 2-month-old girl with her cough, you can try the following remedies: 1. Honey: If she's over 1 year old, honey can help soothe the throat. Give her 1 teaspoon of honey, either on its own or mixed with warm water or tea. This can reduce coughing and irritation. 2. Warm Fluids: Offer warm fluids like soups, herbal teas, or warm water with honey and lemon to help ease her throat and reduce coughing. Warm fluids can also loosen mucus. 3. Steam Inhalation: Create steam in a bathroom by running hot water and sitting with her in the steam-filled room for 10-15 minutes. This can help loosen the mucus and make breathing easier. 4. Saline Nasal Drops: If her cough is due to nasal congestion, saline drops can help clear the nasal passages, making it easier for her to breathe and reducing coughing caused by post-nasal drip. 5. Elevate the Head While Sleeping: Elevating her head slightly while sleeping can help prevent mucus from collecting in the throat and reduce coughing at night. 6. Humidifier: Using a cool-mist humidifier in her room can help keep the air moist and prevent her throat and nasal passages from becoming dry, which can worsen coughing. 7. Avoid Irritants: Keep her away from smoke, strong scents, or other environmental irritants that can make coughing worse. If her cough persists for more than a week or if she experiences other symptoms like difficulty breathing, fever, or chest pain, consult a pediatrician for further evaluation and treatment.
