How can I speed up a child's recovery from a cold?

To accelerate the healing of a child's cold, it is recommended to perform nasal hygiene with saline water. This can help clear nasal secretions and possibly reduce coughing if it is related to nasal secretions dripping into the throat. It is important to avoid giving any cold medications to children under 6 years old. If symptoms persist, if the child develops a fever that is not relieved by medication, or if their overall condition worsens, it is best to consult a doctor. Remember to always seek professional medical advice if needed.
