Rekha GuptaMom of a 5 yr 3 m old boy2 days agoA. Not always. Chest congestion with expectorant cough is viral nd clears on its own with home care and time. Antibiotics only help if it is bacterial infection that can be confirmed by ypur pediatrician. Steam, warm fluids, and keeping her in an upright position may help in loosen mucus naturally. You can also try kanthprash ayurvedic cough syrup that is made specially for kids, it is really effective and has very good reviews..
