If the patient has a few quick coughs; temp is 99.9 and a funny sound occasionally when inhaling. what do you do?

Go to ER.....: The "funny sound when inhaling" could be due to stridor, a constriction of the upper airway which can happen with some infections. If stridor is present it is considered a medical emergency so go to the er for evaluation and treatment.
