Whenever Ds get flu, he wakes up at night swallowing, choking and even coughing!
is this post nasal drip he keeps swollowing at night and maybe chokes ? It only occurs when he has a flu.
he is 7

I don’t know but how many flus has he had, do you get him vaccinated?

How many times has he had full blown flu at 7 or do you mean he gets the drip every time he has a heavy cold ? What you are describing is relatively normal if your DS gets heavily congested when he has a cold.
