Hello,
Thanks for the query.
I have gone through your description and I can understand your concerns.
The symptoms you have mentioned suggestive of ARI (Acute
respiratory tract infection). You don't need to worry too much as it can be cured completely with timely treatment.
I suggest you to
consult a pediatrician and get the following thing done:-
1.You can give him
paracetamol syrup for fever,the dose which depends on the weight of your kid.
2.Do routine blood investigation and urine investigation.
3.A short course of antibiotic therapy can be given empirically using
amoxicillin or
azithromycin.
4.Nasal decongestants would provide symptomatic relief.
5.If breathing difficulty is there,nebulization using bronchodialtor and oxygen may be needed.
6.Salbutamol containing cough syrups can be given to clear the mucus and secretions. Do not use codeine containing cough suppressants.
If the symptoms persist despite all these,a chest X-ray may be needed to rule out pneumonia.
Hope I have answered your query.
Regards.
Dr.Shinas Hussain
