Hello. Need to ask some questions to ascertain the diagnosis. Is cough more during day or night or same at both times ? Is there any associated running nose/mild fever/loose stools ? Since oral examination and respiratory system examination needs to be done, it would be better if u consult a pediatrician. Steam inhalation and ginger honey tulsi can be tried for soothening effect. Wish speedy recovery.

Next Steps
