Yes possible Allergy. Other possible causes: Asthma (especially if night cough and if parent has asthma), Chronic sinus infection, foreign body or Adenoid hypertrophy, among others. The pediatric provider or specialist can help with a full history and other studies such as allergy tests, chest imaging, sweat tests if necessary. With this work up, the right treatment can help symptoms!
