Can I give my 2-year-old something other than nasal rinses for his cough and stuffy nose?

Yes, you can give your 2-year-old something other than nasal rinses for a cough and congestion. General recommendations for children this age include using a humidifier in the child's room, ensuring they drink plenty of fluids, and possibly using ibuprofen or acetaminophen if they have a fever or seem to be in discomfort. Honey can also be a natural remedy for cough and sore throat in children over the age of one. There are also specific cough syrups available for children, but it's important to consult with a healthcare professional if symptoms worsen or persist for more than 5-7 days.
