Suggest Treatment For Severe Cough, Runny Nose And Fever In A Child

Hello Doctor, I have a 5 year old daughter who is suffering from severe cough, running round nose and fever every 8 hours for last 6 days. She was playing in the swimming pool in bangalore in very cold water and started with running nose the very next day. Her doctor says its viral and has given asthalin and also suggested Azee 200 during our second visit. We have waited for 6 days now and the fever returns back every 8 hours and subsides with Crocin Ds. Her upper respiratory tract infection still remains the same is worse, severe cough, eyelids swollen up with sneezing. She is completely on bed, very tired.
