A. Cold most of the time is a viral illness where there could be running nose sneezing along with cough and it needs supportive care along with proper hydration . steam inhalation will also be useful in this . cough needs to be treated with anti allergic and expectorant bronchodilators or antitussives medicine which should be used once a proper evaluation by the doctor is done and according to the type of cough its prescribed. if any fever is tghere paracetamol can be given to reduce the temperature and the dorse can be repeated again after 6 hours if requiredf .

A. You can actually ask your doctor and then you can go ahead with giving indirect steam to the child and nebulisation as well which are certainly going to be very very helpful as of now for you to go ahead with sometimes the medicines are not enough so you have to go ahead with another step also and this case I believe steaming and a nebulisation is going to be good enough follow child
