Croup is a type of respiratory infection that is usually caused by a virus. The infection leads to swelling inside the wind pipe, which interferes with normal breathing and produces the classic symptoms of "barking" cough, stridor, and a hoarse voice. Fever and runny nose may also be present. These symptoms may be mild, moderate, or severe. Often it starts or is worse at night. It normally lasts one to two days.
Croup can be caused by a number of viruses including parainfluenza and influenza virus. Rarely it is due to a bacterial infection. Croup is typically diagnosed based on signs and symptoms after potentially more severe causes such as epiglottitis or an airway foreign body have been ruled out. Further investigations—such as blood tests, X-rays, and cultures—are usually not needed.
Many cases of croup are preventable by immunization for influenza and diphtheria. Croup is usually treated with a single dose of steroids by mouth. In more severe cases inhaled epinephrine may also be used. Hospitalization is required in one to five percent of cases.

This is a video of our daughter when she contracted croup. The cough is at 1:48. This was after being admitted to the ER and being administered an oral steroid so her cough was improving and less frequent by this point.
my 2 year old daughter at rest in bed with Croup - presenting with barking cough, stridor and distressed breathing and depressions in the chest. These all together at rest are indications for you to seek medical attention for your child. My daughter was under prescription inhalers and we had a nurse monitoring her during the filming of this video. Never be afraid to call for help. Croup can turn into an emergency very quickly. You must closely monitor the child and look out for signs of breathing distress.

If you ever wonder what croup sounds like, here you go. Here is our boy, 20-months with Croup. His cough sounds like a seal's bark. His breathing is weezy. He had a fever. Croup typically strikes between 6 months and 5 years old in the late fall months. We used a humidifier nightly and after a week, his croup cough and symptoms finally cleared. Our biggest fear was our infant getting croup - thankfully we were able to keep them separated. http://www.digitalmomblog.com

071 lyrics
So you sit there all alone
Listen to the voice on the phone
So you can get satisfaction
From a lady taped in action
071, listen and have fun x2
So you stay in your flat
And you say like it like that
You don’t need anything else
Just listen and do what she tells
071, listen and have fun x2
