Dr Vandan H KumarFather of a 7 yr 4 m old boy2 years agoA. exclusive breastfeeding has to be continued till completion of 6 months of age
and you have to drink plenty of water and at least 500 ml milk everyday as well as homemade food from cereals pulses vegetable milk and fruits daily e as well as you can go for shatavari supplement which will also help in increasing the breast milk formation (eg lactonic granules, galact granules etc )
also take multivitamins iron calcium and vitamin d along with folic acid. follow all this steps to increase breast milk formation.
give nasal saline drops every few hourly to the child in the nasal cavity.
try to prevent temperature variations around the child
you can go for indirect steam inhalation which will again help in decreasing both cough and cold
continue the regular diet of the child
if there is no improvement in few days then meet your doctor
for fever and pain give paracetamol.
anti-cold medicines at this age have got side effects so can be givsen only after medical consultation.
