cough needs to be treated with anti allergic and expectorant bronchodilators or antitussives medicine which should be used once a proper evaluation by the doctor is done and according to the type of cough its prescribed.h
if any fever is there paracetamol can be given to reduce the temperature and the dose can be repeated again after 6 houlrs if required .

As steam will help in removing congestion and thus opens nasal passages. Also put naso clear drops in her nose. One drop in one nostril. Good luck and take care
