Mommies I’m getting a little bit worried!
So yesterday afternoon I took my toddler to urgent care because his flu symptoms were getting worse . Well the physician who checked him diagnosed him with (pneumonia) .
Fast forward: So I gave him his first puffs at 10pm. About 15 minutes after he starts coughing baadd!! It’s very constant. Every 5-8 minutes. He did cough hard enough to spit out phlegm. (He just threw up & says that his chest , & mouth hurts. )
“Is this persistent cough okey? Or should I take him in??”
****About 2 years ago he did need this inhaler but his cough went down fast .
This stuff is just doing its job. It’s loosening things up so he coughs that phlegm right out. My dad and brother are asthmatic and take this when they are sick. But also my son gets prescribed the liquid form of this when he is sick too (he’s not asthmatic). Try not to have him swallow it back in.
