Children's hospital: The specialists at the children's hospital can evaluate such a child, if his pediatrician has seen him and decided there is no cold, cough, nor mucus glob causing the noises. If there is no simple illness cause mucus blocking the airflow, then the specialists can examine him under anesthesia to look for a structural problem, which can be soft, collapsing airways or can be a lump blocking airflow.
