A. Cold is most of the time because of viral illness and if the child is having recurrent running nose and nasal congestion it may be a part of allergic rhinitis also so it needs a proper examination. steam inhalation will be beneficial in both the cases along with decongestant medicine like alex cold/ hatric 3/ sinarest. As a part of viral illness there could be associated symptoms like cough and fever whidch needs treatmenct accordingly along with a proper hydration needs to be maintained .

A. If You know any home remedies as of now you should definitely go ahead with that and after that if you see that your child is not getting any relief till the morning also then you should consult your paediatrician ones because that’s the right thing to do at this age
