A. This may due to either allergy or infection and some times due to climate changes and temperature variations . For cold you can give drops wikoryl AF 0.5 ml to the child 2-3 times per day. try to prevent temperature variations around the child and give nasal saline drops frequently for nasal blockage, simple cough and cold. Indirect steam is helpful. Home remedies like Tulsi Ginger diluted with water combination (honey can be added after 1 year age)and turmeric withs milk at least 2 times per day. Give warm water to drink If no improvement in 2 or 3 days then meet your doctor paracetamool for fever and pain.

A. Hello dear parent! Try using Babyhug cold rub to your baby’s throat, chest, back and feet soles gently twice daily. Indirect steam inhalation should help. Consult your child’s doctor for a personal evaluation and seek further advice. Good luck and take care
