What is "croup"?
Croup is a common childhood respiratory condition caused by viruses. It leads to swelling in the windpipe and vocal cords, resulting in a characteristic bark-like cough and noisy breathing. Croup typically affects children between the ages of 6 months and 3 years, with symptoms often worsening at night. While it can be distressing for both children and parents, croup usually improves on its own within a few days with home care measures like steam therapy and staying hydrated. In intense cases, medical attention may be necessary to help with breathing difficulties.
