Dr Sameer awadhiyaGuardian of 2 children1 Year agoA. Cough along with Cold and fever most of the time is a viral illness or allergic and it needs supportive care along with proper hydration needs to be maintained. you can give steam inhalation which may be useful .
cough needs to be treated with medicine like anti allergic expectorant bronchodilators antitussives or cough suppresents medicine which should be given only after a proper evaluation by the doctor according to the type of cough and need.
In severe cough nebulisation can be given where medicine directly gets dilivered in the respiratory tract.
Also if fever is there paracetamol can be given tguo reduce the fever and the dose is 15 mg/ kg body weight and can be repeated after 6 hours again if required .
Home remedies lgike Tulsi & ginger mix in honey can be tried for soothing.

RashmiMom of a 11 yr old girl1 Year agoA. When the feeding posture of the child is not correct you can often see this kind of a problem and the child would have a coughing issue in this case I would advise you that you should definitely go ahead with keeping the head into the elevated position by putting a hand underneath so that the child can easily swallow the milk
