What Can Be The Reason For Dry Cough In Child?
Hi, I have a 15 month old who has what seems to be a dry cough. He is not running a fever, he does not have a runny nose, and he appears to have NO trouble breathing either. The cough is disrupting his sleep, which is why I'm up and on the computer. What could it be?

Dear parent, dry cough could be due to irritation of the respiratory tract. you should use a cough suppressant as Mucinex 3 times daily until the cough resolves
