See below: First, cough is not bad. It is mother nature's natural protection to help clear our throats and lungs and keep our lungs open so they don't accumulate mucous and fluid to cause breathing probs. Also, for a 3 yo, there are no otc meds that are recommended under 4 yo. Treat as you have, humidifier, prop the child up to help mucous drainage and vicks, etc, can be used to help get a bigger breath.
