Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern. As per your query your child has cough and cold which is mainly because of lower respiratory tract infection and it could be due to granular pharyngitis. Need not to worry about it. These symptoms normally takes 3 days for to go. Visit pediatrician once and get it examined. Tusspel Plus and syp. Dezacor are good for your child and should give mild dosage of it to your child. Coscopin syrup is good for your child as well. If cough is exaggerating go for chest X-ray, blood and sputum test of child. If it is bacterial infection start with proper course of antibiotics. Till then give crocin 4 hourly. Acetaminophen is also effective and you can give that as well. Give child proper rest without any discomfort. Give water after every few mins.

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.
Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
