Answered by Dr. Babita Goel
Your daughter seems to be struggling with a persistent cough, especially during playtime and with sudden weather changes. Considering her history of lung infections, the pneumococcal vaccination might be a good option. This vaccine helps protect against bacteria that can cause serious illnesses like pneumonia, supporting her lung health. Please check with her pediatrician to see if she is eligible for the vaccine.
