Hi Welcome to HCM

I have gone thru your query and can understand your concern .
Dear I would like to suggest you to restrict yourself from self medication , specially in case of childern as the wrong or strong medicine can harm the child .
In such a situation , when fever is around 100. , don't penic . You should
give warm water frequently to the child in sips .

In case of cough A spoon of ginger with a spoon of honey mixed in cup of warm water or milk , administered frequently in spoon doses , will give relief from cough and to lower temprature .

It is important to seek medical attention if situation persists and get thorough check up .

Hope this helps solves your query .Take care .All the best

Don't hesitate to get back if have any further query .
