Hello
Your toddler had cold , cough , running nose 10 days ago , took treatment , cured .
All these symptoms recurs , advise bideocort and dioline nebulizer .
When such patient visit with these recurrent symptoms I advise them to take montelukast+bambuterol syrup once in day and patient respond very well ( dose 0.2 mg /kg body weight of both salts .
Usually these symptoms may be due to allergic bronchitis or asthmatic allergic bronchitis.
Due to allergy patient develop bronchoconstriction ,hence cold , cough and running nose .
Dust , mite , pollen , hay , smoking , sudden rise and fall of temperature are certain predisposing factors responsible for allergy.
So avoidance is necessary in such type of cases.
Bideocart is steroid and I usually don't prescribe steroid in ordinary cases because of side effects.
Hot coffee and steam inhalation will also provide relief.
Good luck.
