Dr Sameer awadhiyaGuardian of 2 children3 years agoA. 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 presdcribed.
if any fever is there pgaracetamol can be given to reduce the temperature and the dose can be repeated again after 6 hours if required .

Just roast ajwain, tie it in a thin muslin cloth. U can make it like a potli and slowly give that sek on the chest of ur baby. Make sure it isn't very hot. Or u can keep this potli near to her pillow.. the smell can help to relieve blocked nose.
