Cough at night

2022-08-08 17:05:39
My son is 4 year old. I took him to doctor for cold and cough but the doctor didn't prescribe any medicine saying he's still small and doesn't want to give medicine to children. Which I understand her point. However, I'm giving honey and doing the steaming in the room to help him to sleep but his cough increases at mid night. What else can I do to help him?
