Croup Doctors in Malta

Croup is a viral respiratory infection that causes swelling around the vocal cords, producing a distinctive barking cough, stridor, and breathing difficulty, most commonly affecting children under five. A paediatrician can assess the severity of the croup and prescribe corticosteroids to reduce airway inflammation and ease breathing. Severe cases with significant breathing difficulty require urgent medical attention or hospital admission.
