hello
i have read ur query.cold and cough can be due to viral infection.in that case you may wait for few more days because A cold can last from one to three weeks.for cold t-Minic syp can be given.if the cough persists than coscopin syp cn also be given.A vaporizer in the child's room might help with a cough.U can also use honey 1/2 to 1 tsp (2 to 5 ml). It thins the secretions and loosens the cough.
hope this ans helps
