Suggest Remedies For Fever And Cough In A Child
Hi, My 3 year old son, has been sick all day. He s had a cough which at times is so bad he gages himself(but hasn t coughed in a few hrs now) and has a fever currently at 102. I just checked his pulse (he s been laying down for hours) of 144BPMs. I keep giving him ibprofen and tylenol alt. every 5-6 hrs. I am wondering if I should take him to the ER, or just let him ride it out.

Thanks for consulting at Healthcare Magic.
Along with paracetamol or ibuprofen, your son may need cough syrups, mucolytic, nebulization, ORS solution etc.
Consult pediatrician who do detailed clinical examination and will give treatment accordingly.
