Hi,

As per your query, your daughter has a frequent cold and cough which is mainly because of poor immunity of body leading to respiratory infection. Need not to worry.

You should visit pediatrician once and get it examined. Go for regular blood tests and start with the proper course of anti-inflammatory medication.

You should give child plenty of fluids. Give your child diet that can improve immunity. Give child proper rest without any discomfort. Give water after every few mins.

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

Take care

Regards,
Dr Harry Maheshwari, Dentist
