My 4yr old has croup & has asthma should he get a breathing treatmnt his flem is light green & he's not eating should i take him to pedi dr 5th day.

See the doctor: If he is having a problem breathing now, do the treatments on a regular basis, mostly albuterol every 4 to 6 hours. You should call his pediatrician in any case, prior to seeing him/her, as a slight infection can trigger his asthma. Do not wait for the weekend to be over.
