Hi Dear,

As per your query your child have symptoms of cough and cold very frequently which is common which seemsto be due to impaired immunity of child and it is due to upper respiratory tract infection.

I would suggest you to

- Give child high protein diet to improve immunity.

- Give child combination of antibiotic and antihistamine medication to prevent and suppress infection.

- Take Roxid cough syrup for 5-7 days.

- You should give child steam inhalation along with decongestant nasal sprays.

Visit pediatrician once if symptoms keeps on persisting. Start treatment after complete examination.

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.

Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
