Suggest Remedy For Lung Congestion In Infants
My 1 yr old grandson has had congestion in his lungs since he was born. The pediatrician prescribes breathing treatments and drugs (not sure which ones), but it sounds like his lungs are congested all the time. My daughter said the last prescription cost $180.00 for 30 doses and she cannot see any improvement.I m very concerned and would like to take him to a Specialist in this area..... It seems like he should be clear after this many dr. visits.

Sometimes children as young as 1 year old may keep getting frequent colds and coughs. These can be also an early sign of the child being an allergic individual. These viral infections causing frequent colds and cough may automaticaly subside a sage advances however please investigate the child thoroughly for any signs of severe lung diseases. See a pediatrician and discuss with him your concerns. am sure he/she will be able to give you time and a better understanding of the progress
