Night time coughing in this season suggest reactive airwar disease where nebulised or inhaler based medicines becomes a first choice to administer ....3 days is very short duration for improvement but still without taking a chance meet yr pediatrician and explain him ...adding a medinince like oral monteleukast might help with additional sos puff of foracort for 2 to 3 days
Next Steps
meet yr pediatrician
