Should I Be Concerned About Severe Cough Of A 2 Year Old?
Hi my son is 22 months old he was coughing late last night and crying as if in pain. He fell asleep and awoke this morning with tiny blood spots on his pillow and wall next to his head. Is this something to be concerned about or just a nasty cough? The cough sounds normal and only comes at night

Hello. Thank you for your question. My feeling is your son is probably ok. It's the blood spots that have me a little concerned. For this reason, I recommend consulting with your doctor. Hopefully the diagnosis will be a simple one.
