Dr Vandan H KumarFather of a 7 yr 4 m old boy2 years agoA. this can occurs due to weather changes and temperature variations or simple cold and rarely infection.
kindly give nasal saline drops (nasoclear /nasivion s)every three hourly and since it is a salt water/saline water it does not have any side effects and can be given again and again for nasal blockage and respiratory cough.
it will dissolve mucus in nose and throat.
for fever and pain give paracetamol.
anti-cold medicines at this agez have got side effects so can be given only after medical consultation.
try to prevent temperature variations around the child and you czan also give indirect steam inhalation and if there is no improvement in 2 or 3 days then meet your doctor

RashmiMom of a 10 yr 11 m old girl2 years agoA. You can take ginger juice and honey mixture three times in the day and also you can take steam for your child is in since your child is to small I would not recommend to give any medicine without consulting the doctor right now the seasonal infection is too much over in the season to consult your doctor one time
