Whooping cough
Child is having dry whooping cough from past 2 months, visited pediatrician and has been on medication - asthalin and budecort rotacaps from past 2-3 weeks. Cough is not coming down, temporarily it reduces forms day or two but again starts coughing continuously for 1-2 hours with some break in between if given some hot water or cough syrup like amrodyl, however it's been 2 months since the cough has started. Doctors whom we visited including child's pediatrician says that the lung is clear but the problem is that he is prone to allergic cough. Pls help us in finding a solution and also if we should go for further investigations to know if there is any more complications. pls help.

Hi thanks for writing to Practo consult. From your history I m suspecting allergic cough. I would be definitely more sure in physical examination. Nevertheless, remember allergic conditions take their own time to heal.
Continue the inhalers prescribed.
