Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern. As per your query your child is suffering from high fever and cough which seems to be due to viral or bacterial infection and it seems to be due to upper respiratory tract infection. Need not to worry. I would suggest you to visit pediatrician once and get it examined. You should get blood tests done and start treatment after proper diagnosis.

- Take diet rich in fresh juices and fruits.

- Drink plenty of water and fluids.

- Give anti-allergic medication along with proper course of antibiotic along with Ibuprofen.

- Do tepid sponging as well to lower down fever.

- Take multivitamins to booster immunity of body.

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.

Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
