Dear Patient,

I'm sorry to hear this, you can put norsaline nasal drops in her nostrils before bedtime. You will need to invest in a nebulizer and nebulize her with 2cc normal saline mixed in a 1cc atom. Use this to nebulize her 2-3 times a day so that her phlegm comes out. Give her 1tsp syrup Zyrtec at night and visit a child specialist for evaluation of chest infection. Also give cough syrup bronkal 1/2tsp thrice a day.

Moreover, if you need further help, we recommend checking with a best child specialist in Lahore and seek a piece of in-person advice at https://oladoc.com/pakistan/lahore/child-specialist
