What Is The Treatment For Cough And Vomiting In A Child?

My son has had cold symptons for several days. This morning both of his eyes were matted shut and his eyes have ran with green gunk all day. He has a terrible cough that results in the vomiting of phlegm. He has no fever, but does have a nasty nose. Should we ride it out or is it time to see a doctor?

dear parent, for his eyes you should use an antibiotic eye drops as topradex. for cough you should give a cough suppressent as dexomethorphan, together with an expectorant as mucinex. for the running nose you should give an antihistaminic as citrizine once daily before going to bed
