Hi
Welcome to Healthcare-Magic
Greetings of the day

Upper respiratory tract is the commonest cause for fever. It usual for children to loose appetite during respiratory.
Apart from antipyretic I would suggest you the following
1. Steam inhalation : 15 to 20 minutes each session twice a day. Preferably using electronic steamer.
2. Decoction : to a cup of milk + 10 Tulsi leaves + 2 gms of fresh ginger + 2 black pepper + 1 spoon of turmeric + 2 spoon sugar. Bring it to boil. Filter it and serve him hot.


Wishing you a very happy and healthy life.


Take care

Best Regards
Dr Deepak
