How to tell if my 3 year old son's cough might be something serious?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
See Your Doctor: Your 3 yr old has "cough". Cough can be associated with upper and lower respiratory infections and can resolve over the course of improvement. Persistent cough, especially with fever is indicative of more serious illnesses. Importantly, cough in this age group can follow choking and aspiration of a foreign body into the airway. See your doctor for correct diagnosis and treatment.
