Cough: Coughs in children are oftentimes from viral upper respiratory infections although sometimes they can be bacterial. As with many infections, recommend using a multi-vitamin, consider vitamin c and push the fluids. Beyond this, you could try medications like Guaifenesin with dextromethorphan which are medications that thin mucous and suppress cough. If fevers, they should be evaluated.
