What to Do If a Child Coughs and Vomits in Their Sleep

Question

What should I do if my child suddenly coughs a few times and then vomits while sleeping?

Answer

If a child coughs and vomits while sleeping, it might be due to an upper respiratory infection. Pay close attention and try to give your child plenty of water. If you suspect they may have choked or have a blocked chest, it’s best to go to the hospital for a CT scan. This season is a high-risk period for pneumonia, so extra precautions are necessary. These are my suggestions for the question asked, and I hope they are helpful to you. Wishing you health!
