What Causes Raspy Breathing In Infants?
Our 11 month daughter is very healthy and active, at times she has raspy breathing and has an occasional cough since teething began at 3 months. We ve been to pulmologist and says everything in chest is ok, congestion in upper and sinuses. What would cause this?

Hi Dear
Welcome to the HCM,
Upper respiratory tract is quite sensitive for the congestion. Narrowed nasal passage because of little swelling and some secretions leads to such breathing.
Steam inhalation and saline nasal drops will help in relieving the symptoms.
Hope the query is answered.
thanks
