Cough from a long time like 2 yrs
Hi Doctor,
Good morning
My nephew has been dealing with a persistent cough for about two years. We've visited several hospitals, mainly seeing general physicians who prescribe medication, and after a few days, he feels better. However, he experiences this cough every month, and sometimes, after two days of coughing, he also develops a fever.
Could you recommend which specialist we should consult?

Consult a pulmonologist and get him evaluated for airway disease and allergies. Look out for any symptoms of gastric reflux too.
