  5. My son has had a cold, cough, wheezing, and a runny nose for the past 11 days. He wasnt eating much but kept asking for water all the time, which is unusual for him. We saw a pediatrician who prescribed Tminic and Asthalin syrup, but we stopped the nebulizing because he doesnt feel comfortable with it. Hes doing better now, eating and active, but he still has a runny nose, especially in the mornings and evenings. Recently, his cold seems to be turning into wheezing again, which is really painful for him. He becomes restless and doesnt sleep or eat properly. Can you suggest how to manage the runny nose and prevent it from turning into wheezing again? Im really scared if this keeps happening.

For your son's persistent running nose, consider adding saline nasal drops or spray to help loosen mucus, and consult the pediatrician about continuing Tminic and possibly adding an antihistamine or decongestant; regarding the recurring wheezing, discuss with the pediatrician the possibility of underlying conditions like asthma, allergies, or respiratory issues, and explore preventive measures, such as avoiding triggers, using a humidifier, and keeping your home clean and dust-free, to reduce the likelihood of wheezing episodes.
