[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Thanks all for your answers. For context, the nurse line we have access to pretty much always recommends urgent care. We don't want to go unnecessarily and either get a more vulnerable child severely ill, or catch something worse. In fact it's quite possible she caught this bug at urgent care this weekend (for an unrelated issue). Plus, my child has full on meltdowns when they do nose and throat swabs. Just wanted to get a sense of what other parents typically do when a child is coughing hard but otherwise breathing fine.[/quote] Nothing. They can’t do anything for her. My rule on coughs is if it lasts for two weeks or causes breathing trouble. Otherwise it’s a wasted visit. [/quote]
