Nighttime coughing could be related to unresolved urethral inflammation, or it could be another cold, or it might be pediatric mumps, or it could be asthma in the form of sensitivity to air changes. Etc. In summary, the common causes of children's coughing mentioned above are recommended to give the child more water to prevent the effects of cold, and if necessary, go to the hospital for a blood test.
