Can Fondness To Biscuits And Chocolates Cause Coughs During Night In Children?
hi my daughter is three years old and she is suffering from coughs, mostly during late evening and nights. she is very fond of biscuits, chocolates and toffees. did her habit have something to do with this. she already had two doses of antibiotic amoxyllin, and we are scared to give her another dose. she is active all the time.
Thanks for writing to healthcare magic. Chocolates can cause repeated throat infections and cough. It's better to restrict them. If tour baby is active without fever , no need to give antibiotics. Should settle soon if you stop chocolates. If not maybe the cough is allergic and this needs confirmation by physical examination. Regards Dr Arun
