Is Breaking Of Fever A Good Sign In A Child Having Chest Infection?

My child has a cold/chest infection for 5 days without a high temperature until last night when it was very high, I have given him paracetamol and it has brought it down to normal, is the fever breaking a sign he may be getting better? He has a tracheotomy so has been very poorly. Thanks

No fever is not a sign of betterment.
Kindly elaborate the complaints and history,Why he had tracheostomy?
I would recommend syp. amoxil according to the age and weight of the child(which you havent mentioned) along with syp. paracetamol.
Hope it will help.Be blessed :-)
