However last night she managed to maintain a high temp of 38.6 or higher even with a dose of paracetamol. She kept it high all night & I gave her another dose this morning which did bring it down to 37.7cMy daughter is still coughing, has a runny nose, is normally a happy bubbly child but seems to have no energy & she also had diorreah this morning.
[|AI|]  Hi Dear, Welcome to Chat Doctor. Understanding your concern. As per your query your child have symptoms of fever with cough and cold which is mainly because of lower respiratory tract infection due to poor immunity of body. It could be due to viral infection as well. Need not worry about it. Symptoms resembling flu and normally takes 3 days for viral fever to go. Visit pediatrician once and get it examined. If cough is exaggerating go for chest X-ray, blood and sputum test of child. If it is bacterial infection start with proper course of antibiotics. Till then give Cronin 4 holy. Acetaminophen is also effective, and you can give that as well. Give child proper rest without any discomfort. Give water after every few mins. Give diet rich in multivitamins along with plenty of fluids. Hope your concern has been resolved. Get Well Soon. Best Wishes,
