How do you breathe with whooping cough?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Normal unless coughi: With whooping cough, when the patient is not coughing the breathing is perfectly normal. The cough is spasmodic and continues until there is very little air left in the lungs and when the patient then breathes in the whooping noise is made.
