Viral infections till 5 years of age are very common. Keep him well nourished, avoid contact with patients, avoid chilled beverages and exposure to cold and vaccinate him properly.

Your son must be getting steroids for cough which makes him healthy and after recovery, medicine is stopped so the appetite must have decreased and again become sick thus this cycle shall go on. Do not give any medicine containing steroids for cough. Steroid does more harm than good in long run. It is a very specific drug used for specific disease. Treatment of cough depends on cause.
