Greetings
cough lasting a month with normal blood and chest X-ray findings commonly points toward conditions like cough-variant asthma, protracted bacterial bronchitis (PBB), or upper airway cough syndrome from post-nasal drip. Since she is already on an inhaler, you should consult a pediatric pulmonologist to see if the medication type or dosage needs optimization. The specialist may recommend a spirometry lung function test or an allergy workup to check for specific environmental triggers
