My son has a croup cough what should i do to help him? he also sounds horse and coughs whenever he does a little to much.

There : There are a number of different things you can do. Most important is to keep the child hydrated. If the child gets into a coughing fit, run your shower on hot, getting the bathroom nice and steamy. A lot of times, the mist helps settle down the cough mechanism in the throat. Antibiotics won't help this. If it persists, seek an appointment with your provider.
