In any situation we have to go step by step.
It seems that your child is having infection either bacterial or viral.
First the treatment given by your doctor is correct although i suggest you to get some tests done as 5 days have elapsed.
Get chest xray,complete blood count of child done if the fever doesnt get controlled till tomorrow evening.
