Your Child's Cough

  • Coughs are one of the most common symptoms of childhood illness.
  • Although a cough can sound awful, it's not usually a sign of a serious condition.
  • In fact, coughing is a healthy and important reflex that helps protect the airways in the throat and chest.

But sometimes, your child's cough will warrant a trip to the doctor.
  • Understanding what different types of cough could mean will help you know how to take care of them and when to go to the doctor.

  • "Barky" Cough
    Barky coughs are usually caused by a swelling in the upper part of the airway.
