Suggest Remedy Of Persistent Cough
my 10 months baby boy is having mild cold cough ,but little consern bcoz a week has past. my wife is giving him home made medine and also making him vomit often with some relief.we are avoiding to visit a doctor bcoz some medicine dries the cold in the body itself,that keeps the cold to appear again and again. Or protussa is the better option? plz help, correct us if we are wrong

Hi...your wife is right. Cough is a protective reflex and need not be treated unless it's cause brethelessness or disturbing sleep or daily activities... As you say its mild cough... U assume none of these are present... So be rest assured.
