Dr Sameer awadhiyaGuardian of 2 children2 years agoA. Cold is most of the time because of some viral infection or allergic condition and symptoms are usually sneezing, running nose, nasal congestion and fever. cough along with throat irritation are usually associated .
Treatment consists of antiallergic antipyretics analgesics and decongestants medicine .
As a home remedy steam inhalation would be vefry useful .
Medicines like wikoryl / tminic / Alex cold can be used in a proper dose for 3-5 days as per the symphitoms .
Steam inhalation is repeated frequently .

Dr Vandan H KumarFather of a 7 yr 4 m old boy2 years agoA. Home remedies like Tulsi Ginger diluted with water combination (honey can be added after 1 year age)and turmeric with milk at least 2 times per day.
try to prevent temperature variations around the child and give nasal saline drops frequently for nasal blockage, simple cough and cold. Indirect steam is helpful.r
For cold you can give drops wikoryl AF 0.5 ml to the child 2-3 times per day.
This may due to either allergy or infection and some times drue to climate changes and temperature variations .
If fever is present give paracetamol.
