My son is 4 years old. he is coughing during the day but during the night when he is sleeping he doesn't cough?

If new onset cough,: it is most likely related to a mild URI and should run its course in a few weeks. No need for treatment. If cough is chronic or related to exercise, it may be a variant of asthma or even a tic cough and should be evaluated.
