Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

How old is the child? Cough may be due to infection or allergy or b asthma. until examination is done it is difficult to say what it is . Avoid cold exposure, avoid cool drinks. Use water vapor inhalation in case of child age >10. If symptoms not improved please consult your pediatrician he will examine and treat you accordingly.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
