Pediatrician 's  Response
Hi,
Thank you for your query on Healthcare Magic,
It seemd your daughter is having upper respiratory tract infection could be due to a virus or a bacteria.
For fever you can give paracetamol syrup in prescribed dose.
Consult your Pediatrician for the examination to assess the need for antibiotic.
In viral fever antibitic is not required.
Don't use antibiotics without a doctor prescription as it may lead to drug resistance or some times it is not required.
Hope I have answered your query.
I find this answer helpful
