Infant With Frequent Meningitis, Bronciolitis, Croup. Is This Due To Possible Floppy Larynx?

Hi I m going back and forth to hospital with virus such as meninjitis, bronculitis and croup with my 6 month old baby each time requires an ambulance he is admitted every month with something since he s been born. I am for sure he has a floppy larynx. Is it possible that babies with a floppy larynx are more susceptible to virus such as these?

HI
Thank for asking to HCM
No you are under the wrong impression or might be wrongly informed, if the child frequently getting infection then it is obvious that the immune system of child is weak and such patients are more susceptible to infection, and the condition will remains as it is till child get older and build his immune system strong, it is not matter of worry if you take all precaution against the infections then it will be fine, take care of child and have good day.
