My son has been breathing through his mouth with a wheezing sound for the past day and is unable to sleep properly. There is no cough during the day and no fever. What could be the cause?
Mouth breathing with a wheezing sound and disturbed sleep can be due to airway narrowing, often seen in conditions like Asthma, allergies, or a viral infection affecting the airways. Even without fever or daytime cough, nighttime symptoms can still occur. Monitor him closely, keep his room dust-free, and try steam inhalation if suitable. If the wheezing continues, worsens, or he has difficulty breathing, consult a doctor promptly, as he may need inhalation treatment or further evaluation.
