Brief Answer:
Laryngomalacia

Detailed Answer:
Hello. I just read through your question.

Under any circumstances, there is a ossibility of increased difficulty of breathing with sore throat and cough. The presence of laryngomalacia does not increase or decrease that risk. she should be treated like any other child with sore throat and cough. I recommend consulting with your doctor if the symptoms persist or worsen.
