How Can Upper Respiratory Tract Infections Be Treated?
My 4 year old. Doughter has had several upper respiritory. Infections to the point it's more often than not. We have noticed the small piece at the top of her throte is attached more on one side than the other so it's off to one side. Quite a bit. Most of the time as soon as she goes to sleep she starts coughing a lot and is bringing up a remarkable amount of clear mucas. Any ideas

the clear mucus indicates mostly allergy and post nasal discharge .that coukd be due to improper nanagement of past infection or if she is diagnosed before as having bronchial asthma that will need to be reassesed from her physcian to change her treatment plan
and your role is to monitor her general condition , and increase warm fluids and decrease milk and banans at night because they increase the thickness of mucus
