[|Human|] Hi, My son is 1.4 yrs old, weighing 12.5 Kgs. Today, he is suffering again from chest congestion and cough, today morning when we measured his temperature it was 99.7 F, so a little fever too. History ======= In the last week (8-Aug to 17-Aug 14) he was having high fever 101-102 F (8-13 Aug) with cold and cough. One of the Pediatrician to whom we consult gave following medicine to him, after which by 14-Aug he was recovering well, in-fact there was no fever after 14-Aug, and he was all good by 18-Aug. Medicine: ========== 1. Clamp KID from Dr. Reddy s (3.5 ml twice a day for 5 days) 2. Relent + (4ml twice a day) for 3-5 days 3. Ambrodil S (6ml twice a day) for 3-5 days Now, that he is AGAIN have cold and cough with a little fever too, wondering what should be done next. Thanks, Paresh
[|AI|]  Hi... I think that your kid is getting recurrent viral illness and doesn't need antibiotic at all. I will clarify certain issues regarding viral illness and if these are suiting your kid, that means, he was having only viral illness and nothing to worry as such. Fever of few days without any localizing signs could as well a viral illness. Usually rather than fever, what is more important is the activity of the child, in between 2 fever episodes on the same day. If the kid is active and playing around when there is no fever, it is probably viral illness and it doesn't require antibiotics at all. Once viral fever comes it will there for 4-7 days. So do not worry about duration if the kid is active. While recovering from viral illness, it is quite common to have cough and cold and that is how the phlegm comes out while vomiting or in motion.
