Hello Doctor, My son has cough from last Jul. I have shown him to Pediatrician and Chest Specialist. They are advising to take Foracort through inhaler and it is going on for quite time and asked me to relax. Still cough is not going away. He had covid in last Jul and since then the cough has not stopped. How long will it take for him to recover? Is there any alternate medicine we should try or any additional tests to be done?

Ans: He may be allergic to something. Your doctor can prescribe allergen testing. Also check if he has reflux which can lead to a chronic cough.
