My 11 yo had just a dry cough for a couple months.. No other symptoms. Took him to dr for routine checkup...turns out he had pneumonia. I WILL NEVER ignore "just a cough" again

My 21 month old still coughs here and there and it sounds really phlemy.  i had his lungs listened to and the dr said they were clear, but of course there was no coughing while at the dr's office.  There is no fever, no other symtoms just a wet sounding cough.
