Child Has Cold, Wheezing, Yellow Urine. On Medication And Antibiotics. Worry?

Hi Doctor,
My son is 5 months old.He has got a bit of cold and was having wheezing last week and he is on medication. No antibiotics. My concern is since last 2-3days he is passing less urine and also at times is yellowish. He is active. Also I must mention that even I was having viral and was on antibiotics. So is it a singn of some worry.?
Kindly reply. Thanking you.

Hi Dear

Welcome to the platform of Health Care Magic.

Because of cold and wheeze(excessive breathing)the body requirement of water is increased to almost double.

When ever child is sick, intake of food and water is also quite compromised.

These both factors leads to dehydration, and in tern leads to less production of urine.

Please encourage the water and food intake during sickness of child. This is a part of treatment.

Hope the query is answered

Thanks
