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 prescribed.
if any fever is there phuaracetamol can be given to reduce the temperature and the dose can be repeated again after 6 hours if required .

As steam actually helps in opening up nasal passages and also clears congestion of the baby. Also for vomiting is normal among babies. You must burp your bBy after every feed by holding him in upright position and massage his back for 20 mins and 4 burps are necessary
