Should I See Doctor For My Daughter Who Has Runny Nose And Cough?

My 2 year old daughter who weighs about 23 pounds. Has had a green runny nose for about 2 weeks, and a cough as well that occasionally will make her cough so bad she will vomit. Now she has a temperature of 99.6 which I know isn t too high, but I m just concerned because she doesn t seem to be getting better. Could this be a cold or allergies, we recently had a warm spell and the pollen was quite high, and should I call her doctor by now since its been so long, or wait it out?

Hello

Welcome in H.C.M.

In reference to your query regarding cough and cold with fever to your daughter of only 2 years old, and having green nasal discharge, Here I would like to tell you that these all are symptoms are of upper respiratory tract infection along with allergy. Such child may land up over complications like pneumonia.

Keeping this in mind it will be better to get you child examine by your doctor and accordingly treatment may be plan.
