Help with Croup?

2 ⤊

Hi,
My 2 sons have croup at the moment. Does anyone have any tips or tricks for relieving the cough. They are on oral steroids but they take about 24hours to take good effects apparently.

Thanks

Steam - and lots of it! Run a bath or shower hot hot hot with doors and windows closed, so you really steam the room up.
