Child Have Sneezing, Running Nose And Throat Pain

Hello, I m having a bad day. Last night I started to sneeze, I thought it was normal. But I guess wrong. When I went to school my throat was hurting me and my stomach, also I had a bad running nose. I told my dad, but he said it s just a cold. To be honest I don t even know if I have a cold or not. Please help. Thank you, doc.

Pediatrician,  's  Response
Probably you are suffering from common cold which is basically a viral infection. There are a number of viruses that could cause this. Antibiotics are ineffective in such infections. Even if it is streptococcal sore throat, irrespective of the use of antibiotics, it will take 5-7 days to go away. Just take steam inhalation and gurgle with lukewarm water and you will get relief. Also take some antiallergic like levocetirizine. It will help in reducing the sneezing. You need not worry.
