Is there any home remedies for a cold?

My son is 5mo old and got a little cold. His daddy has had one for the last week and he finally got it yesterday. As to my understanding there is really nothing you can do. I know to contact his doctor but this is something I’m not freaking out about. Just wanted to ask any experienced moms if there is anything they did that helped or any home remedies.

I have used nasal saline drops for his nose and the bulb. Also using a humidifier at night, plus we have elevated his mattress so he is not laying flat……
Thanks for any advise!
Or maybe I’m doing everything right?
Should I wait on taking him out? There is a moms group that I do events with and was wondering how long after his cold can I take him out because I’m worried about other kids and people he would be around.
