Nebulizer is not to be given unless recommended by a doctor because it is for specific purposes. You can give steam inhalation but don't bring the child too close. Cough and cold medicine depends on type. Is there wheezing sound? Nose block or running? Severity?

Sorry for nebulization, liquid has to be decided according to the pediatrician after examining the child. Please do a direct consultation
