Question

Is the child’s cough allergic? The child has been crying and fussing recently, and I don’t know what to do.

Answer

A child’s cough could be caused by allergies or other respiratory issues. Parents should take their child to see a doctor for a comprehensive examination to determine the cause. The doctor may recommend antihistamines, corticosteroid inhalers, or other treatment methods. Additionally, parents should pay attention to the child’s diet, avoid allergens, and keep the home clean to reduce the child’s exposure to allergens.
