Cough in children needs to be examined by a qualified child specialist to rule out sinister causes like pneumonia. Self medication and empirical diagnosis of diseases in children should be avoided
Next Steps
Consult nearby child specialist for confirmation of diagnosis and appropriate treatment if required
