Child Symptoms:

• Coughing that is constant or that is made worse by viral infections, happens while your child is asleep, or is triggered by exercise and cold air

Bronchitis is inflammation of the bronchi (large and medium-sized airways) in the lungs. Inflammation of the mucous membrane in the bronchial tubes. It typically causes bronchospasm and coughing.

Allergic Rhinitis (Hay Fever)

An allergic reaction that mimics a chronic cold. Allergic rhinitis is a diagnosis associated with a group of symptoms affecting the nose.

Nonallergic rhinitis can affect children and adults, but is more common after age 20. Triggers of nonallergic rhinitis symptoms vary and can include certain odors or irritants in the air, changes in the weather, some medications, certain foods, and chronic health conditions.

Symptoms:

• Stuffy nose
