[|Human|] Hi my 5 month old son is up coughing. He has a clear runny nose. My husband and I have both just gotten over colds but our son has also been exposed to another coughing baby this week. is this just a cold? were not sure what to do. We are overreacting parents Im afraid, shold we take him somewhere?
[|AI|]  Hello dear!Don't get panic.It's a viral illness and will settle in a few days. You can give him 1/2 teaspoon of honey in about 3 ounces of Luke warm water once daily along with increased fluid intake in the form of increased frequency of breastfeeding, and green tea or honey water. Fluids help in recovery from common cold ad flu. Give him steam inhalation twice a day, especially before bedtime. Give him some good anti histamines like levocetrizine (2ml at night). Hope it will help. Wishing your child good health :-)
