A. Cough along with Cold and fever most of the time is a viral illness or allergic and it needs supportive care along with proper hydration needs to be maintained. you can give steam inhalation which may be useful . cough needs to be treated with medicine like anti allergic expectorant bronchodilators antitussives or cough suppresents medicine which should be given only after a proper evaluation by the doctor according to the type of cough and need. In severe cough nebulisation can be given where medicine directly gets dilivered in the respiratory tract. Also if fever is there paracetamol can be given to reduce the fever anjid the dose is 15 mg/ kg body weight and can be repeated aftfer 6 hours again if required . Home remedies like Tulsi & ginger mix in honey can be tried for soothing.

A. Nose bleeding is never considered good so it’s better to get it checked with a ENT Dr some problem in the news right now with the doctor can easily handle with a treatment or maybe medication it is not a serious problem but we cannot ignore it also
