Dr Vandan H KumarFather of a 7 yr 4 m old boy4 years agoA. viral fever becomes normal by four or five days and then loss of appetite may be present but after that it will also improve so just continue your efforts and take regular follow up.
in viral infection the most important thing is regular water intake by the child and at least 50% of the diet

Dr Sameer awadhiyaGuardian of 2 children4 years agoA. Cough and Cold needs to be treated only after a proper examination by a doctor after the exact cause is diagnosed.it may be due to infection or allergy.it may not be related to food items or climate but seasonal changes may aggravate the susceptibility to get infected .
maintain good immunity of the child with proper diet and supplements.
if associated with fever too, calpol can be given three times a day..
As the first line of treatment, give steam .to relieve blocked nose and nasoclear drops can also be given multiple times.
Cough Syrup or nebulization should be given only after a proper evaluation according to the type of cough .self medication may not be so helpful so please consult your doctor once. if the cough is productive you can give brozeet-ls or ambrodil syrup for now only n continue only after doctor's advice.avoid refrigerated items and give simple home-made preparations a required.child may not be interested iln food due to altered sensations of taste bud in illness will gradually begin to eat as symptoms resolve.
