A. Cold is most of the time because of some viral infection or allergic condition and symptoms are usually sneezing, running nose, nasal congestion and fever. cough along with throat irritation are usually associated . Treatment consists of antiallergic antipyretics analgesics and decongestants medicine . As a home remedy steam inhalation would be very useful . Medicines like wikoryl / tminic / Alex cold can be used in ag proper dose for 3-5 days as per ther symptoms . Steam inhalation is repeated frequently .

A. Its Okay it should not have a side effect on the child but have to be very particular and cautious because these medicines have really high amount of paracetamol into them so that’s not very good so this time if your child is acting normal then don’t worry about it
