A member asked:
Continuous coughing in 3yr old- two days now- very little sleep- low grade fever- can i use vics vapor rub?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not recommended: Often Vicks can make the secretions thicker and harder to cough up. Elevate the head and keep the room cool and not too dry. If he/she continues to be sick see their doctor. All the best.
