Welcome to HCM
Greetings of the day
Its common to have mild fever in upper respiratory tract infection. If the fever is still persisting for more than 48 hours after taking full antibiotics then change the antibiotic preferably to azithromycin. If there is no hurried breathing then there is no cause for further concern. Give Her warm fluids like hot soup. Milk with turmeric added. Saline nebulization will also benefit her.

Get back to me if you have further queries.
Take care
Regards
