A member asked:
My 20 month old has a cold with a runny nose, coughing and wheezes when he breathes. is there anything he can take for the coughing?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Wheezing: The cough may be related to the wheezing you hear. The usual over the counter cough and cold medicines do not usually help wheezing. The best thing is to see the pediatrician for the appropriate treatment.
