A member asked:
My son started coughing real bad and he coughs till he throws up. nights are worse, he'll cough non stop. does this sound like whooping cough?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Could be: Anyone having a coughing fit can cough until they throw up - the medical term is vomiting after coughing - post tussive vomiting. If your child is not fully vaccinated, please check in with your doctor right away. Whooping cough coughs long and hard - and you may not hear the characteristic "whoop.". It is very contagious.
