Question

My child has a hoarse cough, with a few coughs without any noticeable improvement. I’m wondering if it’s a cold and what the treatment for a hoarse cough should be.

Answer

Hello, a hoarse cough in children may be due to a respiratory system infection. It is advisable to visit a respiratory specialist for examination and treatment with appropriate antibiotics and medication. If the symptoms do not improve, further examination and treatment are recommended. Meanwhile, staying hydrated and getting rest can help speed up recovery.
