CPMG

Why is my child barking? It could be croup!

The difference between a cough due to cold or a cough due to croup is very distinct. Croup, which is an infection that causes the vocal chords to swell, causes a cough that sounds like a bark. In Dr. Jaime Friedman’s latest BLOG, she explains very thoroughly the symptoms and treatment for this common ailment.
