Hello , give steam inhalation to baby , give drinking water frequently to keep baby hydrated, you can give honey in warm water . Cough syrup etc have no role . If fever breathlessness wheezing are there child needs examination & investigations to treat the cause of cough related disease . Simple cold and cough could be viral and it will pass off with supportive treatment as advised . Avoid irritants like smoking or mosquito coil etc
