    Could I have croup
    I have been sick with a sore throat and a cold I suffer from asthma and lately I have had a cough it doesn't feel quite like asthma it sounds more like croup, even though I haven't lost or got a hoarse voice and croop is more common in younger children could I have it?

    It could be anything from the common cold to bronchitis to something more serious such as pneumonia.

Child with the Croup. [ 1 Answers ]

My son is 5 and he is getting the croup every couple of months. It seems to be getting worse and last night we need to go to the hospital where they gave him a shot so he could breath. Can the croup be related to his tonsils? Should I see an Ear, Nose, and Throat doctor? I'm not sure what to do...
