My daughter's been coughing since October and at first, it was just like any normal cough. After three days of this, we took her to see her pediatrician who prescribed some meds and antibiotics. She's basically been on one medication or another since then. We've even seen a few doctors, like a general physician, another pediatrician, and a pulmonologist, but nothing's working. She coughs so much at night that sometimes she ends up vomiting. We're really worried and feel helpless about her health. She's on an inhaler and other meds for her cough and cold right now. Can someone offer any advice for us concerned parents?

I'm really worried about my 3-and-a-half-year-old girl who's been having a dry cough for a week. Luckily, there's no fever or cold, but now there's this gur gur sound coming from her chest. Should I give her an expectorant or try nebulization? We have a prescription for Alex Jr. from the doctor, but I'm unsure if I should keep using it. It's tough to get to the hospital right now because of the lockdown and distance. What should I do?

Continue same treatment.
