Hello
Thanks for writing to HCM
Your son is suffering from cough and cold with super added infection.
Generally cough and cold is due to viral causes and it is self limiting.
But disease may be prolonged due to super added infection with bacteria.
Your doctor has prescribed right medicines.Antibiotics will take time to control the infection,so you should wait for 1-2 days.He will be alright with medicines.
Hope i have answered your query.
Take Care
