Greetings
presentation looks like a prolonged post-nasal drip from viral upper respiratory infections, persistent environmental allergies, or chronic tonsillar hypertrophy where the airway becomes irritated. Because a cough producing thick mucus has persisted for 10 days, a physical evaluation by a pediatrician is highly recommended to properly assess the throat and lungs. To aid recovery at home, you may offer the toddler frequent sips of warm fluids to soothe the throat and utilize a cool-mist humidifier in the child's room to loosen trapped mucus. Please avoid using over-the-counter cough or cold medications unless specifically prescribed by a physician
