Hello,
Since your son is having headache for 3 days and now he has congestion and fever. You are suggested to get him examined by a Pediatrician. Your son may need antibiotics, anti-inflammatory, etc. Neglect will only lead to worsening of the symptoms complicating to pneumonia.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
