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 gtparacetamol can be given tog reduce the fever and the dose is 15 mg/ kg body weight and can be repeated after 6 hours again if requirged . Home remedies like Tulsi & ginger mix in honey can be tried for soothing.

A. I think it is just an allergic reaction that your child is having I would advise you to get an allergy test done for your child that’s definitely going to give you much better clarity as per the situation and treatment would be suggested on that basis only
