A. Cough and Cold should be treated only after a proper examination by a doctor after diagnosis.it may be any infection or allergy.it is not so related to food items but seasonal changes may aggravate.maintain good immunity of the child with proper diet and supplements. if with fever too ,calpol can be given three times a day.give steam inhalation to relieve blocked nose and nasoclear drops can also be used multiple times. Cough Syrup or nebulization should be given according to the type of cough .self medication is not advisable. if the cough is pro toductive you can give ascoril-ls or ambrodil syrup for now only n continue only after doctor's advice.avoid refrigerated iteims and give simple home-made preparations as required.child will gradually begin to eat as symptoms resolve.

A. hi dear Give plenty of liquids, including breast milk or formula (if your baby doesn't take breast milk). A small amount of water may be offered to your baby if they're over 6 months old. Suction out nasal mucus using saline drops and a suction bulb Moisturize the air with a humidifier.
