Child Has Cough And Cold, Wheezing. Done Nebulization, Taken Omnacortil. X-ray Normal. What To Do?
Hello Doctor, My 2and half year old son is suffreing from severe cough and cold for the last 10-15 days. From 2-3 days he is wheezing a lot. My pediatrician suggested nebulization and omnocortil syrup. But he is not responding to even back to back nebulizatons. His xray reports are normal but still my doctor is suggesting admission. What do we do?
