Pediatrician 's  Response
Hi,
Thank you for asking question on health care magic.
Crocin can be given to 7 years baby, but the dose is 15 mg/kg bodyweight/dose every 4-6 hourly
Steam inhalation and local instillation of saline nasal drops will help relieving congestion quickly.
Avoid cool drinks and ice creams and cool atmosphere.
Hope this answer will serve your purpose
Please feel free to ask any more queries if required
Take care
