A. If your toddler has a dry cough, there are several Indian home remedies you can try to provide relief. Keep in mind that these remedies are not a substitute for professional medical advice, and if your child's symptoms persist or worsen, it's important to consult with a pediatrician. Here are some home remedies that may help soothe a dry cough in a toddler: 1. **Honey and Tulsi (Holy Basil) Juice:** - Mix a teaspoon of honey with a few drops of tulsi juice. Give this mixture to your toddler to ease coughing. Note: Honey is not suitable for children under 1 year old. 2. **Turmeric Milk (Haldi Doodh):** - Warm a cup of milk and add a pinch of turmeric. Turmeric has anti-inflammatory properties and can help soothe the throat. 3. **Ginger and Honey Syrup:** - Mix ginger juice with honey. Give a small amount of this mixture to your toddler. Ginger has anti-inflammatory properties and may provide relief. 4. **Licorice (Mulethi) Infusion:** - Make a licorice root infusion by steeping licorice root in hot water. Cool the mixture and offer small sips to your toddler. Licorice can have soothing properties. 5. **Ajwain (Carom Seeds) Steam:** - Boil water with ajwain seeds and allow your child to inhale the steam. This can help relieve congestion and ease coughing. 6. **Clove and Honey Mixture:** - Mix a pinch of powdered cloves with honey. Give a small amount of this mixture to your toddler. Cloves may have natural cough-relieving properties. 7. **Warm Saltwater Gargle (for older children):** - If your toddler is old enough to perform a gargle
