Hi, Do not nebulize without consulting doctor. Nothing to worry now. In the future, always consult doctor

Hi. Nebulizations given under medical supervision are pretty harmless.

Considering that it is repetitive and he has not been seen by a doctor on 2 occasions it's worth a visit to the doctor and a detailed work up

Meet your pediatrician directly. He will examine the chest and if required only he will prescribe nebulization. Else no need to give. Dont do self medication. Every time a child may not get the same disease.
Next Steps
Consult near by pediatrician
