Pediatrician,  's  Response
Hello. I just read through your question.
The first thing I want to rule out with prolonged fever and cough is pneumonia. Though not very common, you don't want to miss it. Other possibilities include sinus infection, and viral illness. In any case, I always recommend having patients with this story checked out. No emergency. But still get checked out.
