Cough and Wheezing in Children
Coughing and wheezing in children is common. They may be terrible and distressing for you and your child; however, it doesn’t mean that your child has a serious condition. Cough in children is normal and healthy. It is an important reflex that helps in clearing the airways in the throat and chest.
It is usually easy to relieve the symptoms of cough and wheezing in children at home. Yet, urgent medical attention is needed in case the symptoms become more serious. It can develop a breathing problem during a severe dry cough in children. If the symptoms don’t settle, take your child to the pediatrician without any delay. Smoking is also a significant risk factor for respiratory problems in children.
