Does Persistent Cough And Congestion After Treatment For Pnuemonia Need Medical Attention?
My 2 year old was diagnoised with pneumonia last Thursday. He got a shot of rociphine in the office and 7 days of antibotic. Today is day 4 and he is still running slight fever at night and his cough is terrible. I have listened to his breathing with stethescope and can still hear a wheezing sound. Should I take him back to the dr.?
hi, cough and breathing problem should not purchased after 7 days of antibiotic. If it is persisting then we have to look for the cause of cough and breathing problem. Kindly do a x-ray chest. An examination by doctor should be done so that we may not miss any important finding. Take care.
