Nebulisation doesn't help cough due to tonsillitis,it generally helps if your son is having a wheeze which a doctor has to diagnose.Secondly antibiotics do not decrease the cough.cough takes 7-10 days to subside.Third it's better to avoid curd if he is cough a lot as curd may aggravate his cough in certain conditions.Show a doctor who will prescribe you appropriate medicines for the cough
