My 2 1/2 year old has had a bad hoarse cough, runny nose and watery eyes, I have taken him twice to see the doctor and all they tell me is it s a virus and I have to let it run it s course but he has been like this since Jan. 14th, he can t sleep or carry a conversation without coughing. He can t even breath at night when he sleeps. I have done it all, humidifier, lemon/honey, Nasonex and he takes his allergy medicine everyday. I need HELP!!!!!!!!!!
Hi... Thank you for consulting in Chat Doctor. Greetings from Chennai. By what you quote I feel what your kid could be having viral associated wheeze or multi triggered wheeze. I have a few questions for you -Questions:1. How many days per month does she cough or feel breathless?2. How many nights per month does her sleep get disturbed due to above symptoms?3. Does she feel breathless when she runs around or plays with other kids?4. Are the symptoms when there are seasonal changes?5. Is there any family history of asthma or any other sort of allergies like skin allergy etc.?6. Is the cough always associated with fever? Get back to me with answers to above questions.
