HiT hanks for writing to Chat Doctor. Viral cold cough is very common in babies, but usually up to 6 times in a year. Repeated cough and cold could BEA) infections b) allergic. To decrease infections get PCV vaccine and yearly flu vaccine. Avoiding chocolates and sweets will help too. To decrease allergies you need to get her tested for total IGE and specific IGE. Get Chest X-ray and manitou done to rule out pneumonia and primary complex. Wishing your child speedy recoveryRegards Chat Doctor.
