My child has been dealing with a cough for almost a year now, and we've tried multiple government hospitals, but nothing seems to be working. I can't afford private doctors or medication. Is there anything you suggest we can do?

I'm wondering if it's okay to give levolin 1 mg syrup to my 8-month-old baby. He's been dealing with a dry khasi and sardi since yesterday, and I'm not sure if this medication is appropriate for his age. Is it safe to use levolin for such young infants, or should I be considering other options to relieve his symptoms? I'm worried and just want to make sure I'm doing the right thing.

I'm really worried as my 2-month-old baby has a completely blocked nose because of the weather. Can I use Otrivin paediatric nasal drops for her? Any suggestions would be really appreciated!

I'm really worried about her. She's been having a temperature of 99 degrees for the last 35 days, and initially, it was around 100 for two days. We gave her paracetamol then, and it didn't go above 99 after that. Should I be concerned that it's lasted this long? What should we do next?
