A. Cold is a viral illness and symptoms could be sneezing, running nose, cough sore throat, nasal congestion and fever. Treatment consists of antihistamines antipycretics analgesics and decongestants . steam inhalation would be beneficial . Medicines like sinarest/wikoryl / Alex cold can be given in a proper dose according to the weight for 3-5 days as per the symptoms . you can give banana no problem

A. Hello dear parent, as elderly people a sa that it should not be given during cold, then it is right upto an extent. You should also give 1 small size banana in the day time and another same size banana after few hours. So that she is able to digest.
