for your kind info Vicks is banned in 24 countries as it was found one of the main reasons of cancer causing agent, so stop it immediately. for cold take 150 ml mustard oil put 5 pieces of garlic and 1 table spoon ajwain now burn these 3 things on gas and once it is of normal temperature apply massage on your baby body twice a day, cold will vanish permanently
