Why is my daughter still having high fever after a week, still coughing? Took her to her physician, check her lungs and everything was normal. I don t understand what is happening. Why this fever is not going away and the cough is bad. What do you recommend what is your advice? Thank you !
Hi Dear Welcome to the Chat Doctor, Recurrent chest infections are quite common in this changing season. If fever is not responding in three to four days of medication then one should investigate the child in terms of ESR, CBC, Ty phi dot test, chest x-ray and malaria antigen to rule out any infection and accordingly baby should be treated. Hope the query is answered. Thanks
