7 yr old son, dry cough, says his chest hurts when he coughs, no fever, been sleeping and not eating?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Chest is : Hurting from coughing too much.Try to give him plenty of fluids and an expectorant to help loosen up the cough. If he has asthma, he needs to take his medications as prescribed. Once he feels better, he should start eating.
