Suggest Treatment For Chronic Cough Leading To Breathlessness
Hey my daughter is congested and has a bad cough. She cough at least twice or three times every 10 to 15 seconds. She s also breathing fast like she s running out of breath. We ve given her warm milk and honey, garlic and salt water, let her inhale steam, and gave her cough drops and it seems she s getting worse. What shall we do if we can t get to a doctor?

Hello and welcome.
You need to get to a doctor as this could be an infection requiring medications. If you cannot get to a doctor right away, then you can continue with everything you are giving and also add sips of lukewarm water, and may be use an anti-histamine medication (not too strong through).
Best wishes.
