A daily cough lasting more than four weeks, often causing significant parental stress, sleep disruption, and reduced quality of life for the child.
A chronic cough in children is defined as a cough lasting more than four weeks. While often caused by post-viral infection, it can indicate underlying asthma, allergies, sinusitis, or gastroesophageal reflux.
Homeopathy helps manage chronic cough in children by addressing the root cause, strengthening the immune system, and reducing sensitivity to allergens or infections. Its aim is to reduce inflammation and prevent recurring respiratory infections without side effects.
