Hi,
As family medicine and pediatrician have different views, I think you should do CT chest to rule out any possibility. At present kindly continue with treatment advised by pediatrician and if symptoms not resolving then go for detailed investigations and treatment options. Keep away from any allergens like fog, mist etc.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
