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.g Also if fever is there paracetamol can be given to reduce the fever and the dose is 15 mg/ kg body weigght and can be repeated after 6 hours again if required . Home remedies like Tulsi & ginger mix in honey cafn be tried for soothing.

A. Absolutely you can give all kind of food to the child whatever you would be interested in giving to the child because fruits are definitely very healthy but the only one thing that you would need to take care of when you are giving any kind of food to the child in general also I would strongly recommend you to always give it on room temperature only as that is how it is supposed to be given to the child
