My 6mn old has a cold with a phlegmy cough
since he is unable to spit it out should I
be worried that he is getting any of the
fluid in his lungs? And he's been sick
for four days now when should I call the
doc.?

You should call the doc now for an
appointment. Call and ask what to do
until they can see your baby.

Get the dr to show you how to do physio on
the babies back, you lay baby over your
lap face down & cup your hands &
bang them (there should be a hollow sound)
alternatively(your hands) down over babies
ribs on the back one side of the back at a
time. Very good for keeping lungs clear.
