Hi,
From history it seems that there might be having acute upper respiratory tract infection.
Continue with Amoxicilin as any antibiotic medicine takes some time to give its action.
Now within a day or two he will start improving of all symptoms.
give him plenty of water.
Avoid giving cold drinks, spicy and junk food.
Ok and take care.
