my 6 yr son has mild adenoids. now from past 10 days he is having cough. after bout of 08 days of anitibiotics the cough has not gone. Yesterday night he woke up coughing,that is when I noticed that the saliva(phelgem) is filling his throat and is causing choking and cough. He has a tendency that with severe cold his nose will not run the whole thing he sucks inside which infects his throat.
