A. This may due to either allergy or infection and some times due to climate changes and temperature variations . For cold you can give drops wikoryl AF 0.5 ml to the child 2-3 times per day. try to prevent temperature variations around the child and give nasal saline drops frequently for nasal blockage, simple cough and cold. Indirect steam is helpful. Home remedies like Tulsi Ginger diluted with water combinationd (honey can be added after 1 year age)and turmeric with milk at least 2 times per day. Give warm water to drink If no improvementd in 2 or 3 days then meet your doctor paracetamol for fever and pain.

A. Hello dear parent, give your child steam for few minutes and several times in a day. As steam actually helps in opening up nasal passages and also clears congestion of the baby. Also give your bahy ginger juice with honey in it. 1 spoon of this juice is enough. Make this at home. Good luck and take care
