Hi Doctor, My 11months old baby has severe dry cough during night for more than 10 days which is due to the weather condition ( in Mumbai) & its allergic it seems, she could not sleep continuosly & gets annoyed & cry stubbornly till she fall sleep, this gets continued thru out the night, she is 95% fine during day and her intake is also very regular & normal, kindly suggest is there any quick home remedy so that she sleeps comfortably and get good rest during night. Right now she is on Relent syrup only in the night. She had suffer from Dysentry & Diarrohea earlier to this just before 1 1/2 month back and then severe cold and now with dry cough, is there any co-relation. Pls let me know how soon she will be fine?
