A. For a 1-year-old baby with a cold and cough, it's important to avoid over-the-counter medications without consulting a pediatrician, as many of them are not suitable for young children. Here's what you can do: Home Remedies: 1. Saline Nasal Drops: Use saline drops to help clear nasal congestion. This can help loosen mucus and make it easier for your baby to breathe. 2. Steam Inhalation: Take your baby into a steamy bathroom (running a hot shower) for 10-15 minutes to help loosen mucus. You can also use a humidifier to keep the air moist. 3. Honey (If over 1 year old): For a baby over 1 year, honey can be soothing for the throat and help with coughing. You can give a small amount of honey (1/2 tsp) twice a day. 4. Warm Fluids: Offer warm fluids like breast milk, formula, or water, which can help soothe the throat and keep your baby hydrated. 5. Elevate the Head: If your baby is comfortable, elevate their head slightly while sleeping to help with mucus drainage. When to Consult a Doctor: If the cough and cold symptoms persist for more than a few days or worsen. If your baby has a fever, difficulty breathing, or signs of an ear infection (like pulling at the ears or excessive crying). If your baby seems to be in pain or is having trouble sleeping due to the symptoms. A pediatrician will be able to prescribe the appropriate treatment, whether it’s a specific cough syrup or other medications if necessary.
