The early symptoms of a whooping cough are often mild and like those that come with a common cold, but after a week or two become more severe. Prolonged and extreme coughing attacks may provoke vomiting, result in a red or blue face, cause fatigue, and end with a high-pitched "whoop" sound, although many people don't develop this eponymous whoop.
