A. If your baby has been suffering from cold and cough for 4 to 5 days without improvement, it's important to take further steps: Steps to Take: 1. Consult a Pediatrician: Since the symptoms persist, schedule a visit to your doctor. They can evaluate your baby's condition and may suggest additional treatments or tests. 2. Hydration: Ensure your baby is drinking enough fluids. This can help thin mucus and ease congestion. 3. Humidifier: Use a cool-mist humidifier in the room to keep the air moist, which can relieve nasal congestion and coughing. 4. Saline Drops: Use saline nasal drops to help clear nasal passages. This can make it easier for your baby to breathe. 5. Elevate Head: If your baby is comfortable, slightly elevate their head while sleeping to help with drainage and reduce coughing. 6. Monitor Symptoms: Keep an eye on any additional symptoms like fever, difficulty breathing, or wheezing, and inform your doctor if they occur. Avoid: Over-the-counter Medications: Do not give cough or cold medications without consulting a pediatrician, as they may not be safe for young children. Follow-Up: If there’s no improvement in a couple of days or if symptoms worsen, seek immediate medical attention. It's important to ensure your baby's well-being.
