My little one has been dealing with a really stubborn cough and cold, and his nose just won't stop running. It's been going on for almost 4 months now. We've been trying homeopathic treatments, but it doesnt seem to be helping much. This seems to happen every year, and Im getting a bit worried. What should I do?
