Hi.... Many thanks for consulting in Health Care Magic. Frequent colds are quite common in kids who go to crech or playschool. Its because of recurrent viral infections. I suggest that there's no need for antibiotics. Absolutely no steroids are indicated. He will gradually grow out of these things & become resistant. Please do not worry. Hope my answer was helpful for you. Happy to help anytime. Further clarifications and consultations on Health Care Magic are welcome.
