pleaase advise as we are unable to send the child to school
Hi, Continue with antibiotic for 2-3days more. If there is no improvement then go for blood work like complete blood checking, Widal test and if require go for x-ray chest. After all reports go for treatment as advised by your doctor. Give plenty of water. Give light diet. Ok and take care.
