What Is The Cause For Running Nose, Cough And Sore Throat?

Hello,
My son is 8 years old and is showing symptoms of a runny nose, cough, the appearance of generally not feeling, and is complaining of his throat hurting when he laughs (he's watching a funny kids movie right now). I have a Dr's appointment at 1:30 PM today. Can you tell me what might be the problem?

Hello, Welcome to Healthcare magic.

I can understand your concern about your child there is nothing to be worried it can be throat infection or due to change in climate viral infection also .

You can give syrup Amoxicillin one tablespoon twice daily for 5days by consulting your doctor .

Do warm saline gargle two - three times a day

Hope it will help you.
