What Causes Sneezing And Gurgling Sound In Chest?

My 2 year old is currently getting over a cold. He is still sneezing and coughing occasionally but ...I am worried because he has this gurgling sound in his chest when he breaths (it sounds like he has a cough that needs to get out) after he coughs..the sound stops. Is this something I should be concerned about? DO you think it is more than a cold? Thanks!

Hello dear, welcome to HCM forum.

This may indicate a lower respiratory tract infection beyond simple cold, and may need antibiotic treatment. Kindly see your doctor for a chest examination, especially if he is having fever or breathing difficulty.

Hope this answer will help.
Thank you.
