Congestion issue
My daughter has a cough, congestion, and a cold, and her lips are also very dry. Please suggest what I should do. There is no pollution issue, but she still isn't well.
This symptom suggests viral infections u need to properly hydrate your child give luke warm water to drink. If possible use warm saline vapour. Use of cough syrup is not indicated but u can use oral cetrizine syrup but after consultation with a pediatrician. Avoid exposure to direct cold air.
