my baby is 17 days old and cough has made him very much irritated. he is trying his best to get that phlegm / cough out but is quite unable to do that. what is the way out because as per doctor cough syrup can't be given to him

A. hi as baby is too young ,you should discuss the current health condition of your child with your pediatrician . And please give breastfeeding as and when your child demand. you may place potli of roasted ajwain seeds near your child head or give indirect steam inhalation atleast twice in a day.
