A member asked:
My 6 yr old is suffering from croup but the minute she starts to cough she has to vomit and large amounts of clear fluid come up. is this normal?

No : If she's coughing so hard she vomits, that's not normal. She should be checked to see if she needs breathing treatments. Good luck!

Need more info: Could be normal. Please report this to the physician who is caring for your child. Several complications can occur to a 6 yr old that can impact on the child's pulmonary status. The physician should instruct you about proper pulmonary toilet to prevent complications. You do not want gastric contents getting into the lungs. I assume the physician has prescribed medication. Croup is serious.
