My son is 8 years old. He often has cough nd congestion. I tried treating it wd ayurveda, homeopathic, daadi maa k niche nd other cough syrups but all in vain. He gets treated wd only antibiotics (augmentin). M really worried. Pls advice.

If augmentin has good effect then can be due to tonsilitis. Avoid cold and sour food. saline gargles and oral hyegine.
