Pediatrician,  's  Response
prolonged fever , cough and anemia in a child suggest serious pneumonia which is either a T.B or mycoplasma pnemunoina.
in cases of T.B, cough is predominant , anemia occur due to lack of apetite and fever adds on that.
I highly suggest doing a chest XRAY, and PPD test to help us with diagnosis .
mycoplasma pneumonia causes cough and fever and causes hemolytic anemia which is the destruction of RBCS
I recommend for that : mycoplasma IgM titre , and treatment of azithromycin syrup for total of 10 days .
iron therapy is needed for the anemia, give iron syrup with a dose of 6mg / kg, maltofer syrup is recommended.
I hope this helps
