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 and according to the type of cough its prescribed. if any fever is there paracetamol can bgte given to reduce the temperature and the dose can be repeated again after 6 hours if required .

A. Yes Yes you can give steam to the child indirectly also you can put nasal drops if you need to put them along with that you can keep your child’s head on a mustard pillow when you’ll be putting your child to sleep because the when the head is going to be in a little elevated position breathing is going to be much better
