14 month old, cold and sickness.

Hi all, I will be going to pharmacy later to ask also but wanted to ask if anyone has any recommendations for anything that can help a 14 month old with a heavy cold? She had been vomiting since she woke due to coughing up phlegm and not knowing what to do with it (she hasn’t got a temp etc so we know it definitely is a cold) she’s had a heavy cold like this before and was vomiting for a week. We’re using olbus oil in hot water in the living room where she plays to breath that in & snuffle babe rub. We’ve used the calpol vapour plug in before but didn’t find it made a difference. Any suggestions?

not to drip feed but she also has a kidney condition and is on prophylactic antibiotics for it.

Saline nose spray and a snot sucker? If worried I'd go to out of hours.

@Abcdefu I’ve never heard of a snot sucker, That would definitely help thank you x
No not worried at all she’s absolutely fine in herself. I just wanted to ask for cold remedies really to reduce the phlegm. Obviously if she deteriorated or isn’t drinking etc. I’d ring straight away
