Dr. Kyon Hood answered

Specializes in Pediatrics

Signs to look for: It doesn't sound like anything to worry about, but signs to look for that would indicate the need for a doctor visit are worsening cough, difficulty breathing, wheezing, rapid respiratory rate or fever. If any of these symptoms develop you should contact your pediatrician immediately.
