    GFY Parents, I Have A Sick Kid And Need Some Help

    My young guy 3 1/2 has a very bad cough and a sore stomach does anyone know any good online resources to go reseach this kind of ailment?

    He's had the cough since Friday and it just seems to get worse now and he's sneezing like crazy today. I really don't want to take him to the hospital over this because I don't think it's at that point yet.

    Any help would be appreciated.

      for his coughing and this isn't a joke but rub Vicks vaporub or anything with methenol on his feet( or chest) it unblocks the trigger that makes him cough but if hes sneezing and running a bad fever take him... coughing and sneezing sounds like and allergy but the stomach has me wondering.... try webmd.com


      im not a smart man but I did stay at a holiday inn express last night

                          Why not just take him to your family doctor, or better yes his pediatrician?

                              Vics Vaporub is already on his chest, I just put a humidifier beside his bed as well. Hoping that will relieve a bit of the coughing.

                                  I'd take him to the doctor, Better safe than sorry and they will know what to do for sure.

                                      I will tomorrow if the cough doesn't let up, I'm hoping it's something we can deal with at home though.

                                          Coughs and "sore stomachs" rarely go hand-in-hand, I would be willing to bet it is more like his lungs.

                                          GFY probably isn't the best place to seek medical advice for your kid.

In the meantime, try propping a pillow behind his back so that his isn't lying flat on his back - should relieve some of the pressure on his lungs and the coughing.

                                                                                                                      sounds like croup and if he has been coughing since fri his stomach will hurt cuz the stomach muscles will be sore from all the coughing.

                                                                                                                      as for the congestion if he is coughing it up and spitting it out thats actually a good sign, if he isn't coughing it up thats a bad sign but not a dire sign just means a visit to the doc is in order

                                                                                                                      The big thing between him and the ER is that temperature though

(The kind that has seen severed limbs and re-started hearts... oh yeah and I have a 3.5 year old too).

                                                                                                                          I would recommend Robitussin at the dose that your Pedatrician says (to relieve the cough and assist with sleep), a humidifer (depending on where you live), and lots of "cuddles". At that age they love it. I'm also with Trixxia above... if this sounds "wheezy" or "ashmatic" or if you think for even a second that your lil one is having problems getting oxygen, don't WAIT.. go to the nearest ER and have them help.

                                                                                                                          Hope your lil guy or gal feels better.

For the soreness, he can take children's motrin, that will help for that. That's what my kids have always taken for things like this, it helps with the soreness.

If he still is coughing in the morning bring him to the pediatrition or specialist.
