Severe cough in children

Severe cough in children is one of the symptoms of whooping cough. Pertussis (whooping cough) is a common acute respiratory infectious disease in children. Pertussis is the pathogenic bacteria of this disease. It is characterized by paroxysmal spastic cough, with a special inspiratory roar at the end of the cough, with a long course of disease, which can reach several weeks or even about 3 months, so it is known as pertussis. Young infants are prone to complications such as suffocation, pneumonia, and encephalopathy when suffering from this disease, and the mortality rate is high. In recent years, the incidence of infants and adults has increased.
