Brief Answer:
This seems some allergy
Detailed Answer:
Hi again
Kindly follow the following management:
- Syrup Cetrizine 4 drops before sleeping. This is an ani-allergic medicine and needs to be given only on days when symptoms are prominent. She might have some mucous all the time due to allergy. If you can figure out the cause of allergy, that would be best. Avoid the allergen. Avoid her any swimming sessions and dusty or polluted air.
- Give her one teaspon honey, half teaspoon turmeric and one-forth teaspoon pepper. Mix it and give it twice a day for few days. Steam is also good. Ginger tea by boiling ginger and tulsi in clean water and add some honey or jaggery and give. Avoid giving bread in future. Avoid sugar for two days. She will be fine in few days.
Hope this helps. Let me know if I can assist you further.
