Throughout the year, parents often find themselves worrying about their child's health, especially when they seem to catch one cold after another. While it's natural to bundle them up to protect them, the common misconception that cold weather or seasonal attire causes sickness needs to be debunked. Pediatrician Cindy Gellner, MD, talks about when, why, and how children get colds and other infections. Dr. Gellner also discusses when to be concerned if sneezing and coughing become too frequent, and provides advice on keeping your child healthy year-round.
