Hi,
It seems that you might be having upper respiratory tract infection and now infection going down producing lower respiratory tract infection.
This can be viral or bacterial.
Now your child got this infection through air and contacts.
Consult your doctor, you might require antibiotic medicine course.
Ok and take care.
