Brief Answer: Relax. Detailed Answer: Hi Thanks for your query. I understand your concern. Relax,there there is nothing to worry . In is common in young children to have repeated respiratory infection due to decreased immunity,most children have 6 to 10 episodes in a year. This frequency decreases as child grows. I suggest you to give him nutritious diet having fruits,vegetables,milk,cereals so as to boost immunity. Boil XXXXXXX leaves in water and add few drops of lemon,ginger with half spoon of honey and give it to him daily. Avoid all kind of junk food items. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist further. Wishing your baby good health. God bless.
