Hi Dear ,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern. As per your query you have fever, cold and wheezing in an infant which is a sign of respiratory tract infection along with pulmonary wheezing. I would suggest you to give your child short course of antibiotics such as Amoxicillin or azithromycin for 5-7 days along with Antihistamine such as Chlorpheniramine. You should use room humidifier and vapor rub that will give benefits to your child. Steam inhalation is very effective but you have to be very careful while giving it to your child. You should use throat lozenges and go rinses with warm saline water. Take diet rich in vitamin B12. Visit pediatrician once and get it examined. Get chest X-ray done and start treatment after proper diagnosis.

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.

Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
