Brief Answer:
allergy testing
Detailed Answer:
Hi Thanks for writing to us
Usually cold and cough occurring every month is unlikely to be infection. Allergic cold and cough is very likely possibility in your child.
I usually advice such patients to go for allergy testing which can identify the trigger factors.
I also recommend them monteluekast 4mg daily in the evening to control and prevent repeated cold attacks.
It is better to get flu vaccination done every year as this will prevent repeated infections.
Wishing your child good health.
