Dr Sameer awadhiyaGuardian of 2 children3 years agoA. Cough and Cold should be treated only after a proper examination by a doctor after diagnosis.it may be any infective or allergic.it is not so related to food items like banana etc.but seasonal changes may aggravate.
if with fever too ,calpol can be given three times a day.give steam inhalation to relieve blocked nose and nasoclear drops can also be used multiple times.
Cough Syrup or nebulization fshould be given according to the type of cough .self medication is not advisable. if the cough is productive you can give ascoril-ls syrup for now only n continue in propeur doses only after doctor's guidance.avoid refrigerated items and give only simple home-made preparations as required.child will gradually begin to eat as symptoms resolve.

Sai Prasanthi R LMom of a 11 yr 6 m old boy3 years agoA. Hello dear parent! Ideally if the temperature is above 100 then it is considered to be fever. Try giving indirect steam inhalation and a light sponge bath to reduce the discomfort. Speak to your doctor for further advice. Follow your doctor’s instructions diligently.
