Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern. As per your query your toddler have symptoms of persistent dry cough and vomiting which is due to lung infection leading to upper respiratory tract infection / bronchitis. I would suggest you to visit pediatrician once and get it examined. You should get pulmonary function tests and X-ray chest done. Avoid use of sharp , oily and fried food substances. You should take cough expectorants. You should do warm saline rinses 3-4 times a day. Take combination of antibiotic amoxiclav along with antihistamine such as Levocetirizine. Doctor may also refer you to gastroenterologist for proper diagnosis if he/she find this problem to be related with acid reflux ( GERD ). You should avoid cold carbonated beverages. Apply mist humidifiers in room.

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.
Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
