Patient's question:
Girl, 3 years old. About 10 days ago, she started coughing. In the meantime, she took a little of the children's cold medicine granules. Now she is still coughing a bit. The day before yesterday, she started getting small red spots all over her body, and she applied some cooling oil. But this afternoon while taking a nap, she started coughing again in a rhythmic pattern, about 3 seconds apart. Is this normal coughing?Doctor's answer:
From your description, the girl is 3 years old. About 10 days ago, she started coughing, and in the meantime, she took a little Children's Cold Granules. It's mostly a symptom of a common cold. The day before yesterday, she started developing small red spots on her body. It would be best to consult a doctor to confirm whether it could be chickenpox.
