My baby coughs a lot at night and very little during the day. Is there anything that can be done? Baby is 16 months old.

To help relieve a baby's nighttime cough caused by a cold, you can consider using a safe syrup for children over 1 year old. Maintaining regular and frequent nasal hygiene can also reduce nasal secretions that may lead to coughing. If the symptoms persist for more than a week, if the child has a fever for more than 2 days, or if their general condition is greatly affected, it would be advisable to seek medical advice.
