A. Cough along with Cold most of the time is a viral illness and it needs supportive care along with proper hydration. you can give steam inhalation which is very useful . cough needs to be treated with anti allergic and expectorant bronchodilators or antitussives medicine which should be given only after a proper evaluation by the doctor according to the type of cough. if fefver is there paracetamol can be given to reduce the fever and the dose can be repeated acfter 6 hours again if required .

A. Hello dear parent! Steam inhalation should help. Try giving warm soups in Babyhug cute bowls to encourage eating. Consult your child’s doctor for a personal evaluation and seek further advice. Good luck and take care
