Hi
Welcome to Healthcare-Magic
Greetings of the day
Persistent cough with recurrent pneumonitis, possibility of hyperactive airway with laryngoesphageal reflux should be considered as the possible cause.
It will require upper gastrointestinal contrast study.
Do discuss this possibility with your Pediatrician.
Take care
Best Regards
