Hi....usually cough going on like this for months together can be a wheezy cough. By what you quote I feel what your kid could be having viral associated wheeze or multi triggered wheeze (though I do not know her age now). I have a few questions for you -
Questions:
1. How many days per month does she cough or feel breathless?
2. How many nights per month does her sleep get disturbed due to above symptoms?
3. Does she feel breathless when she runs around or plays with other kids?
4. Are the symptoms when there are seasonal changes?
5. Is there any family history of asthma or any other sort of allergies like skin allergy etc.?
6. Is the cough always associated with fever?

Kindly get back to me with answers to above questions and I will be gald to help you out.
I wish your kid a speedy recovery. If you need any future medical consultation and suggestions, I will be glad to help. You can approach me at the following link. Please find the link below.
