A. Cough along with Cold most of the time is a viral illness and it needs supportive care along with proper hydration. you can give steam inhalation which is very useful . cough needs to be treated with anti allergic and expectorant bronchodilators or antitussives medicine wgfhich should be given only after a proper evaluation by the doctor according to the type of cough. if fever is there paracetamol can be given to reduce the fever and the dose can be repeated after 6 hours again if required .

A. Yes You can apply it on the chest as well as feet of the child but out of the nose and neck because it is not considered good if you want you can actually apply properly on the chest back and feet of your child and cover it well and then you can make your child sleep
