MY CHILD AGED 4YRS AND 8 MONTHS HAS GOT PERSISTANT COUGH. HE COUGH IS NOT GETTING CURED COMPLETELY. I APPROCHED DOCTORS THEY ASKED ME TO TAKE COMPLETE BLOOD COUNT TEST.IN THAT TEST THE ESNOPHILIA WAS MORE THAN THE PRESCRIBED LIMIT AND THE ESR WAS ALSO HIGH. THEN THE DOCTOR SUGGESTED FOR MANTOUX TEST , AND  THE SAME SHOWED NEGATIVE RESULT. THEN X RAY WAS ALSO ADVISED TO TAKE. IN XRAY THERE WAS PROBLEM NOT AMOUNTING TO TB OR ASHTHAMA. SIR PLEASE GUIDE ME WHOM SHALL I APPROACH TO  SAVE MY CHILD FROM CONTINOUS COUGH SATE OF AFFAIRS. I AM RESIDING IN INDIA

As the tests were negative, could this cough be environmental, has he any other symptoms,sore throat, any pain ? this could be an allergy, does the child  cough all day /night?  Are any sprays or hazards within range to breathing them in.How is his health in general, is he/she a happy child .
