As you said that the child is suffering from running nose and heavy cough, it could be upper respiratory tract infection. Usually the cause of this is viral but clinical examination is always important to check the throat and lungs of the child. Viral illnesses usually subside spontaneously within 10 days. What important is to watch for any complications and prevent them as much as possible.
Next Steps
Kindly consult a good paediatrician and follow his instructions.
