Question

Should a child with a cough visit an orthopedic surgeon?

Answer

No, children with a cough can visit a pediatrician or a respiratory internal medicine specialist. It is recommended that children over the age of fourteen visit a pediatrician because pediatric medication is controlled and calculated based on age and weight. Some medications that adults can use are definitely not suitable for children. Although baby cough is not a particularly serious disease, if not treated promptly, it may lead to more severe complications. Therefore, parents should take their children to the pediatrician for follow-up treatment in a timely manner.
