A. Cold most of the time is a viral illness where there could be running nose sneezing along with cough and it needs supportive care along with proper hydration . steam inhalation will also be useful in this . 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 andg according to the type of cough its prescribed. if any fever is thefre paracetamol can be given to reduce the temperature and the dose can be repeated again after 6 hours if required .

A. The best defense against the common cold is commonsense precautions and frequent hand-washing. Keep your baby away from anyone who's sick. ...Wash your hands before feeding or touching your baby. ...Clean your baby's toys and pacifiers often. ...Teach everyone in the household to cough or sneeze into a tissue.
