Possible Causes of Coughing Before Vomiting in a Child

1. Before the appointment with a doctor, you can try to determine the cause of the child's vomiting after a cough, based on the symptoms. First you need to exclude pertussis. It is easy to determine by the characteristic sound of the published patient at the end of a coughing fit. Cough due to whooping cough occurs, as a rule, not immediately, but only after a while (10-14 days), after the child has transferred a cold or ARVI. Cough is increasing every day, increasing, becoming paroxysmal and comes to vomiting. But in any case, all of their own diagnoses are only conjectures without confirmation by their respective analyzes (mucus intake, blood test).
2. With the exception of whooping cough, the most likely cause of such coughing can serve as a cold or ARVI. In the beginning, the child develops snot, fever, cough, which subsequently passes into a cough with vomiting.

There is a certain difficulty in detecting bronchitis, as some pediatricians sometimes confuse, with the listening of the child, outgoing phlegm with hoarseness. In time, no appropriate treatment is prescribed, as a result of which bronchitis develops.
3. Another common cause of this cough in a child can be, just snotty nose. Since a small child does not always get to sniff out the snot to the end and some of the mucus drips down the back wall, and some he swallows.

It is worth noting that not all cases should flow nose, when the cause of vomiting is mucus. The nose can simply swell without having a common cold.
4. There are cases when various allergic reactions provoke a cough before vomiting in the child. It can be an allergy to household chemicals, some plants, animals, medicines and much more. But this, as a rule, occurs in children who have a hereditary predisposition to allergies.
