Dan, we are not in the medical field; so it would be difficult for us to
answer your question. I would suggest a cat scan of lung; just to be on
the safe side. My grand child has ashma, only her's is a raspy croopy
cough, with wheezing and rattling to be felt through the back area. A
alergic cough or a cigrette cough tend to be dry, like a clearing of the
throat. Hope this has help some. Your friend, lillian
