Cold and cough are a common problem in winter, especially for small children, who are not able to explain their problems properly. When children start coughing at night while sleeping, it increases the problem. If your child also has the problem of cough at night, then he can get relief by adopting some home remedies shared by Dr. Manoj Mittal.
1. Avoid synthetic blankets
When the child has cold and cough, do not cover him with synthetic blankets available in the market. These blankets cause the child to sweat more, which can cool the body and increase cough. Instead, cover the baby with a quilt and dress him in cotton or woolen clothes. Do not wear synthetic sweaters.
2. Bake the chest with betel leaves
If the child’s cough is increasing at night, then apply mustard oil on a betel leaf, heat it on a pan and then place it on the child’s chest. This remedy gives the child the feel of a natural vaporizer and gives relief from cough.
3. Turmeric, celery and garlic bundle
Make a bundle to apply on the child’s chest. For this, place one spoon turmeric, one spoon celery and two to three garlic cloves in a cloth and heat it on the pan. Then apply this bundle on the child’s chest. This also gives relief to the child from cough.
With these home remedies, you can provide relief to your child’s night cough. Always remember that if the problem is serious, do not forget to contact the doctor.
