A doctor has provided 1 answer
Virtual visit: Most commonly a barky cough is associated with a viral illness. A virtual visit is available at HT and may be useful to you and your physician. Use nasal saline drops for congestion, a cool air mist humidifier and monitor temperature. Provide fluids to avoid dehydration. If the cough is associated with distress, fever or vomiting, please see a pediatrician right away.
