A. For your 2-year, 8-month-old son who is suffering from cold, sneezing, and a runny nose, here are some home remedies that might help: 1. Steam Inhalation: Use a steam inhaler or create a steam-filled room by running a hot shower. Let your son breathe in the steam to help clear nasal congestion. 2. Saline Nasal Drops: You can use saline drops to help clear the nasal passages. Gently place a few drops in his nose and then use a nasal aspirator to clear the mucus. 3. Warm Fluids: Offer warm fluids like water, soup, or warm herbal teas (like chamomile or ginger tea) to keep him hydrated and soothe his throat. 4. Honey and Ginger: For children over 1 year old, mix a small amount of honey with ginger juice. This can help reduce throat irritation and boost immunity. 5. Elevate the Head: While sleeping, elevate the head of the bed slightly to help your son breathe more easily and reduce nasal congestion. 6. Room Humidifier: Use a humidifier in his room to keep the air moist. Dry air can make congestion worse, so a humidifier can help relieve symptoms. 7. Rest and Proper Sleep: Ensure that your son is getting enough rest as it helps in faster recovery from cold. If symptoms persist for more than a week or worsen, or if you notice any difficulty in breathing, consult a pediatrician.
