From past one month, she is getting cold, cough, fever. consulted paed twice. he gave antibiotics, crocin and cough syrup. got her nebulized also. it takes 10 days to get her fine. then after 2-3 days again she catches cold and cough. might be she is catching it from other kids in schoool. what home remedy i can give her for cold, cough. she has got watery eyes bcoz of cold. has become very weak after falling sick agn and agn. pls tell something to boost her immunity. am giving homeopathy medicine also. but it hasnt helped much. pls help. am very worried. as i am working. it becomes really difficult to manage if the kid is sick and that too frequently.

Even i think you should change her day care and see if she stops getting sick. If she does not stop getting sick then you should take her to an immunologist or at least to a good pediatrician and ask him to test her.

I think your assumption is right, she might be catching it from some kid i the day care. Visit her day care one day and see which other kid is sick and if you can not do that try finding some other day care for her.

Hello Anu,
It would be better you can contact to the doctor and get the treatment so that there will not be any problem also so that you will get the treatment and your problem will be solved also.I wish your kid will be fine.

Hello Anu,
So it would be better that your child must take an healthy food which does not increase the cough more and more.There are many remedies which can be prepared at home only so that it will make your trouble less also.

Hi Anu
I was also facing the same problem. You cannot do much about it as kids play with other kids and climatic changes, this is bound to happen as they are exposed to whole lot of things. Homeopathy is the best option. Continue with it. It takes some time but results are very good. Have patience. U can include Mosambi juice, orange or lemon juice in her diet but be sure u add warm water. If u want to follow ayurvedic then u can give her Septilin syrup 2.5ml 2 times aday for 3 months with Suckcee (vit C tabs) 1/2 tab a day for 3 months. This was suggested by my Doc. I would suggest U should not try too many things at the same time. If u are taking homeopathy, continue the treatment.

try this

give mosambi/orange juice everyday unless its a very cold climate or the child has cold/cough. If its cold outside, give small banana (not the regular size one) one or two per day. you can even sprinkle some lemon juice over dal/curry during lunch.Regularly include onions in the diet. raisins , garlic,black pepper,turmeric all are good for cough/cold.
Also, try giving bath twice a day since she is going to pre-school. Wash her hands regularly. if she has cold, give steam at home instead of nebulising her. you get very good vaporisers in medical shops for nominal prices.

RE:Fear of Math

Hi Priya, you can put your child in abacus classes which will help your kid in maths at the same time help him enjoying the sums he solves. Also try to teach maths through video tutorials and other activities.... - Dolly [View Message]

You should always check the hospital and how everything like staff, rooms, doctors, etc are before getting admitted. Hygiene is very important in hospitals as there are chances so getting really sick if it is not clean. Next time be careful about it.... - NN [View Message]

Consult the doctor again and tell him that the ointment he had given did not work and there is no change in those marks so what should you do about it. He will check it and change the cream or ointment.... - NA [View Message]

Yes there are chances that it is an insect bite. See if it reduces with time but mostly insect bite marks reduce in a day or two. If it does not then take her to a doctor and show the rash to him.... - Ashna [View Message]
