Croup: Sounds like he is developing croup which is caused by a virus. Steam is necessary to help his cough.

return to pediatrica: When your child has not improved on antibiotics after 48 hours, it is best to return to the pediatrician for them to check him/her again and decide if other treatment is necessary.
