Further history to ask on cough for paediatric

Quick answer: When taking a history of cough in a child, you want to cover onset, duration, character of the cough, timing/triggers, associated symptoms (fever, wheeze, breathlessness, feeding difficulties), past history (atopy, recurrent infections, foreign body aspiration), birth/neonatal history, immunisation status, family history, and environmental exposures.
