#asktheexperts My son having dry cough while sleeping. what should I do?

A. hi dear Nighttime Cough When your child has a cold, the mucus from the nose and sinuses can drain down the throat and trigger a cough during sleep. This is only a problem if the cough won't let your child sleep. Asthma also can trigger nighttime coughs because the airways tend to be more sensitive and irritable at night.
