Hi,
Thank you for your query on Healthcare Magic.
The reports are in normal range except there is mild changes on X ray chest.
And these changes will correlate with history of cough.
Continue the medication as per the doctor advise.
Watch for his temperature at regular intervals.
Look for any hurried breathing.
Be in regular follow up with the doctor till he is free of fever and cough.
Hope I have answered your query.
Regards.
