CROUP

CROUP

CROUP is a common viral condition of early childhood. One child in 15 between the age of one and two will get it. The condition usually begins with common cold symptoms, which develop into a barking cough and noisy breathing. These symptoms are usually worse at night. Most cases of croup just last for a day or two. The treatments available are very effective and most children recover completely, with no permanent effects. Croup is not infectious.
