FH/O cold cough.since 3 members are suffering from cold and cough, two have become better.,It is obviouly infection ,mostly viral. What I suggest is start Indian spices Kadda., 150ml drinking water,+jaggary,+3 -4 whole black pepper,+ 3 cloves ,+ ginger fresh crushed ,boil to concentrate to 100ml. This conction, cool it and serve warm to your child 2 times a day. For 3days. Add vit C 500mg soluble chewable tablets once a day for 10 days.
You can give steam inhalation. You have to be careful. Hygiene and hand washfrequently. Good nutrition with hydration. , lots of fluilds.
Take care of mosquito to prevent malaria and dengue. Stay safe at home. Covid pandemic is still on.Take all precautions
If any problem consult after taking prior appointment.
Do not forget immunization.

This is a common scenario in a viral illness especially if a sibling or other family member is affected. As it's long standing , should consult a paediatrician to rule out other causes and appropriate treatment.

Child needs proper medication after detailed evaluation.
Do not think that a cough and cold can be treated just by giving random cough and cold syrups.
Doctors assess several points and then give a particular medication .
A medication which worked earlier might not be needed now.
One which worked for the elder siblings might not work for him
Next Steps
book consultation.
do not self medicate
Health Tips
self medication for too long can be disastrous
