Hello,
Thanks for writing to us. Your child seems to be suffering from tuberculosis possibly in lungs. Please get chest X-ray and blood tests to confirm/ eliminate TB. There is associated allergy factor which can cause attacks of asthma with cough and also blocked nose. But of course. fever and night sweats along with cough suggest pulmonary tuberculosis to be the cause.
Take care!
