Normally kids and adults cough if there is an obstruction in the bearthing tube, longer or coughing more often means there is an infection going on and you should focus on other symptoms like fever, lost of apetite, nausea and other signs of common cold like sneezing, runny nose, over-the-counter medicine works well, lots of liquids like water, tea, juices (NO SODAS), and kids usually get back to normal withing 4-7 days. If they don't you should DEFFINITELY go and see a doctor. Long cough might be a sign of allergies as well. Do not wait too long, coughing makes kids exhausted, more tired and not focused.
