Does cold air make croup worse?

Cold Air helps dramatically with the treatment of Croup. Highly recommended. Having your child, suffering with Croup, breathe cold air provides symptomatic relief within 15 minutes. Do NOT use steam being Croup is swelling in the upper larynx. Steam does not shrink swelling whereas cold air decreases the swelling. Think of a sprained ankle.... Cold shrinks the swelling. Remember, Croup is NOT in your lungs... it's in the upper throat area. Cold Air is the number one recommendation from all Pediatricians for symptomatic relief of Croup.
