It's concerning that your son is experiencing respiratory issues again. Since he's had a previous episode of acute bronchitis, it's important to monitor his symptoms closely. The medication may not provide immediate relief if the underlying cause is not addressed. Given his past medical history and current symptoms, it's crucial to consult a pediatrician right away. A doctor can evaluate his breathing, check for any signs of respiratory distress, and determine if further treatment is needed.
Next Steps
For a thorough evaluation and peace of mind, please consider scheduling a tele-consultation. I can guide you accordingly.
Health Tips
In the meantime, ensure he stays hydrated and keep his environment free from irritants that could aggravate coughing or breathing difficulties.
