I have a 3-year-old daughter who has been continuously coughing and vomiting. The cough was initially intermittent but has become consistent, and it is dry. She has a very runny nose and has been sick since Thursday. I gave her salbutamol, but her coughing has worsened and is now continuous, causing her to vomit. She is finding it hard to breathe, but she does not have a fever. She has a history of stridor and a hyper-reactive airway, and she has an inhaler. What should I do?

The pain comes and goes, and the headache is sharp, especially behind the eyes and sensitive to light. I'm 40 years old, using ibuprofen, and recently had rhinoplasty, a hair transplantation, and a PRP treatment on my scalp. I've also had a follicular infection and seborrhoeic dermatitis on my scalp. What could be causing these symptoms and what should I do?
