A. 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 to reduce the fever and the dose is 15 mg/ kg body wgeight and can be repeated after 6 hours again if required . Home remefdies like Tulsi & ginger mix in honey can be tried for soothing.

A. Di Singh is mostly can happen due to some kind of energy so I would advise you to get an allergy test done for your child to be more sure about it because once you know exactly what is the reason it would be easier for you to go ahead with proper medication for your child so I suggest get an allergy test done for your child
