Abstract

Cough in children has consistently been shown to be the commonest symptom for which parents consult physicians. Regarding duration cough is characterised as acute and chronic.

Most children with acute cough are likely to have a viral upper respiratory tract infection. The possibility of a more serious respiratory disorder should be always excluded.
