HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, most of the time such symptoms of cold and cough in age 8 years are self limiting because this could be due to allergic constitution, just care need to be taken for right hydration, and fever, else no need to treat this with any specific medicines unless it is bacterial infection and it was proved clinically hope this information helps, take care and have a nice day.
