A. Since your daughter has had a cough for 15 days and is experiencing whooping (pooping) cough with some vomiting, it could indicate a persistent respiratory infection, allergy, or whooping cough (pertussis). What You Can Do: ✅ Continue Astakind as prescribed by your doctor. ✅ Give warm fluids – Offer warm water, soup, or honey (only if she is above 1 year old). ✅ Use steam therapy – Helps in clearing mucus. ✅ Elevate her head while sleeping – Reduces coughing at night. ✅ Keep the room dust-free – Avoid strong smells, smoke, and allergens. When to See a Doctor Urgently? ⚠️ If the cough is not improving after 2 weeks. ⚠️ If there are wheezing sounds, breathing difficulty, or high fever. ⚠️ If she vomits frequently after coughing. Since the cough is persistent and causing vomiting, it’s best to consult a pediatrician again for a detailed checkup. Let me know if you need home remedies alongside the medicine!
