Pediatrician 's  Response
hi, fever, cough and cold in a 13 month old child suggest upper respiratory tract infection. Since you are already giving antipyretic medicine for 5 days, the child should be given antibiotic depending on the chest examination. Kindly get the child examined by doctor so that antibiotic can be started. Blood test like complete blood count, CRP level should be done to know the causes of fever. Take care.
