Cough and cold
Hello doctor.....My daughter is 3 years old, and for the past three months, she's been getting frequent colds and coughs. I take her to the doctor, she takes the medicine, and she gets better, but then the cold and cough return after about 10 days. Why does this keep happening?

Good evening. School going kids often fall sick frequently and recover and in no time are lined up for something next, especially if they’re exposed to other kids .However there are a few follow up questions you’ll have to answer along with detail history of your child and family history.
Next Steps
I would recommend either an online consultation or in person visit, whichever is comfortable for you.
