Dr heidi. I was just thinking should we nebulize daily to ensure that we do nrt have any breathing problems seeing that covid attacks your respiratory system. Or should we rather get inhalers if we struggle to breath.
My son is 2 years old. He has a cough since yesterday. He does not have any fever. He had RS virus when he was 1y. We have not been in contact with anyone who had Covid. Can I medicate at home with the nebulizer or should I get him to a gp?
