Okay so my daughter has had this persistent cough for almost 2 weeks now we took her in to her pediatrician and he said that it’s not mucus that’s it’s just saliva accumulating and going thru a different wind pipe but yet her breathing sounds hoarsed and she keeps coughing and mucus came out with a little bit of blood like what is going on here? Is there any good doctors out there.. like could he have misdiagnosed he didn’t even prescribe anything and now I’m scared it’ll worsen .. or possibly become pneumonia.. now I have been treating her with some cough pediatric medicine which has helped but she doesn’t get any better.. I’m so upset ....

A cough can last a month after it began

Is she exposed to any second hand smoke or animals?

Prop her head up at night. Humidifier and steamy shower for a bit can help.

Is your house overly dry? That can produce a cough with winter approaching. We recently bought a whole house humidifier. Our house is so dry. My husband has to fill it daily (goes through 10 gallons of water every day to day and a half.)

The blood could just be from her coughing so much that the blood vessels in her throat are breaking.
