Hi,Myself yogita.My daughter is 2 years and 11 months old now. Nowdays she has cough.It increses at night.she can t sleep.It slow down after giving cough syrup and agin it will strat after 5 to 6 days.so could u suggest me if she has any allergy or asthmatic problem
Hi, Thank you for asking question on health care magic. Repeated attacks of cough and breathlessness and family history of asthma suggest asthma as diagnosis. Allergic cough is also possible. Acute bronchiolitis mimics asthma. At this age if the duration is prolonged you may think of whooping cough. Better consult pediatrician for proper diagnosis. Hope this answer will serve your purpose Please feel free to ask any more queries if required Take care Dr.M.V.Subrahmanyam MD;DCH Associate professor of pediatrics
