Chances of travelling of infection are maximum when the immunity of our body is lowered. Yes cold and coryza are generally due to viral infection so there are chances of transferring coryza to junior, As far as post nasldrip is concerned have turmeric in milk and take it hot it will increase your immunity against recurrent cold.
