Make sure he rests, drinks plenty of water, and utilizes a humidifier or warm liquids to relieve the symptoms of a mild dry cough and cold. If necessary, over-the-counter treatments like saline nasal drops or cough syrup can be helpful. If your symptoms get worse, you get a fever, or you have trouble breathing, you should see a doctor.
