KMom of a 7 yr 2 m old boy3 years agoA. Hi. Yes, please consult the doctor once as flu is quite common these days. Also, try to improve the immunity in kids. Try some foods such as vitamin c rich, amla, giloy, tulsi that will help the kid boost immunity. If you find hard to feed these to your kids i can help. Thanks.
Dr Vandan H KumarFather of a 7 yr 4 m old boy3 years agoA. cough and cold medicine is given according to the requirement and examination so do not give any medicine without medical consultation.
if given without consultation coughing medicine can aggravate the problem.
you can go for home remedies like tulsi ginger (honey is added when child is more than 1 year of age) combination which can be diluted with water and given frequently to the child.
also you caan give turmeric with milk one or two times everyday.
give warm water to drink as well as nasal saline drops frequently. give warm diet
try to prevent temperature variations around the child that is from hot to cold and cold to hot environment
