Hello dear!
I would lik to have a detailed history especially is there any history of allergy/asthma in family?
If yes,i would advise monteleukast sachet (4mg)in one ounce water/milk, once at night before bed time for about 3 months along with syp. benadryl 2 ml at night for 2 weeks along with steam inhalation (twice daily especially at bed time).Hope it will help.
Wishing your child good health :-)
