Hello,
I can suggest you only to give him liquids like fruit juice, water, breath humidifier, measure the temperature if it is high use paracetamol. You can take a multivitamin supplement to boost his immune system but you should do a consult with pediatrician because he may need antibiotics.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
