Boil few cloves of garlic into mustard oil and apply it externally on your baby’s neck, chest, back, under feet and palms. You can also elevate ur baby’s head very slightly as it will help avoid getting his nose blocked. You can also try steam To give light steam to your baby, keep your baby in your lap and keep steamer near you. This way, your baby will get the sufficient steam. Continue it for about 10 to 15 minutes. Avoid keeping your baby close to the hot steam water as it could harm your little one. You can keep steamer near your bed and turn your baby’s face towards it..

Dry roast ajwain on a tava or pan. Put the ajwain in a cotton cloth and make a potli of it. Gently rub it on the baby&rsquo;s chest, back, under feet and palms. Make sure the potli is not very hot. First, test the temperature by putting the potli on your wrist. Make sure that the baby must have a single layer of clothing before you start to rub potli on the body. Don&rsquo;t rub it on the naked chest of your baby. You can place potli near baby&rsquo;s nose or in baby&rsquo;s crib so that it can inhale ajwain smell. It is a really helpful remedy to cure baby&rsquo;s cough.
