My son is sick and has RSV

Can I rub him down with Vicks? He is 20 months this Friday. He woke up all night long, every time he started coughing. Poor little guy sounds horrible. Chat Icon Chat Icon

We tried a breathing treatment at the ped yesterday. He fought and screamed for 10 minutes. We had to hold him down to get him to breathe it in. Doctor is going to re-evaluate him on Friday to see if he needs the treatments.

I have a cool mist humidifier and we are using that in his room. I will get the saline and baby vicks tonight. Thanks ladies Chat Icon
