Hi

As per your query, your child has symptoms of severe cough which could be due to allergic bronchitis.

Need not to worry. I would suggest you visit pulmonologist once and get a chest X-ray done. Go for blood and sputum test first and get it examined. Start treatment after proper diagnosis. Take steam inhalation as well. You should take cough expectorants. Take a proper course of antibiotics. You should take a combination of anti-allergic and antihistamine medications for immediate relief. Go for pulmonary function tests as well. Sip on warm water. Avoid cold drinks.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari, Dentist
