Croup

Croup is an infection of the airways that causes a characteristic barking-like cough that normally affects children. Croup normally goes away on its own, but if the condition is persistent, medical treatment should be sought.
Croup is typically managed with measures to relieve symptoms and improve breathing, such as maintaining a humid environment, offering fluids, and providing comfort. Warm mist from a shower or a cool mist humidifier may help alleviate the cough and breathing difficulties. Over-the-counter pain relievers can be used for discomfort, while avoiding cough suppressants.
