Bcz your problem is of long duration you should get a ct scan done of nose and pns to see any underlying pathology like polyps or polypoidal mucosa in nose. By the time you can use tab. Allegra-m daily at bed time and flomist nasal spray twice a day. Do steam inhalation twice a day.

Yes ,you are right cetrizen recommended after 6 month of age. Observe the child for weaning effect of cetrizen which may last 12 hr. But problem is feeding.

But do not worry cetrizine is safe medicine in its class but you must consult to paediatrician if child does not awake. I hope ,it is compelete answer of your quarry.

Dear lybrate-user,
from what you describe your mother had 3 courses of antibiotics along with steroids and medication to help with her breathing.

Cough could be due to acid reflux.
take hot saline gargles atleast 5 - 6 times a day, it will help to clear the throat .

Dear Rajnesh,
Sudden cold in the throat cause pharyngitis or laryngitis. That may be the cause for throat pain, fever and difficulty in swallowing. Salt water goggle, steam inhalation and antibiotics if necessary will treat the inflamed throat. Mint and menthol may not be the cause.
Please plan soon to quit regular cigarettes..If you have withdrawal symptoms use nicotine replacement gum or patch.
