What Causes Raspy Breathing In An Infant?
my grandson is 6 months old and he occasionally has raspy breathing which I can feel on his upper back and chest. It is agitated when he gets excited but we haven t noticed any other patterns. Oh and I also noticed this at the hospital when he was born. What can this be?
