My 1 month old baby is having cold and I think throat infection too. What should I do at home to treat his cold? Or should I use any medicine? We sleep in Air-conditioned room with 27�-28� temperature.

Since you sleep in an air conditioned room make sure you have a humidifier in the room Babies cannot tolerate the dry air from AC as adults can. If you do not use a humidifier your baby will have repeated cold and throat infection as long as it stays in AC. For medication consult online in private.
