Hi thanks for writing to Practo consult.  Voice rest,  So less talking and less shouting and crying. Give 1 cup of lukewarm water every hour to sooth throat. Also all good should be lukewarm. If baby has no fever, this should work fine for Voice. For the cough-- Any cough lasting for more than 1 week in kids require proper follow up for evaluation and treatment..
