Hello,
Thanks for the query to H.C.M. Forum.
As you mentioned that there is eosinophils 22 % , this is very abnormal as normal count is 2-5 %.
This is case of tropical eosinophilis , as diagnosis is confirmed by elevated level of eosinophils .
Allergic asthmatic bronchitis may be the another cause of congestion . Allergy develops congestion in lungs , we call it bronchoconstriction and this causes cough ( usually dry in nature).
In my opinion consult a physician and get treatment for tropical eosinophilia and allergic asthmatic bronchitis.
Nothing to worry as this is a common disease in children due to allergy.
Good luck. Dr. HET
