Having Cough With Mucus, Neck Pain. Took Albuterol. Could This Be Bronchitis Or Meningitis?

My three year old daughter has a cough sometimes with mucus and sometimes without and has been on going for a couple weeks. Her doctor put her on albuterol treatments but we stopped that a few days ago. She is now complaining that the back of her neck hurts. She does not have a fever and eats and drinks normally. Could this be bronchitis or meningitis?

Hi,
From history it seems that she might be having allergic or viral bronchiolits.
Many a time it is mixed with bacterial infection as well.
Go for one antibiotic medicine course after consulting your pediatrician.
Give her cough syrup.
Ok and take care.
