Hi thanks for contacting Chat Doctor... Your child needs detail examination and investigation . Repeated viral or allergic infection can lead chronic cough.... Auscultation of your baby done... If rhonchi heard it could be bronchiolitis or asthma like condition.... Try to avoid exposure to dust, pollen, passive smoking etc.... Healthy food given ... Give him turmeric powder one tsp added hot milk daily for Chat Doctor. ... Sputum examination or culture needed to rule out whooping cough by Bordetella pertussis.... According to sensitivity report treatment given .... If needed chest x-ray also done... For excess cough antimissile medication can be given... Consult pediatrician with keeping this in mind. Take care ...
