Suggest Treatment For Fever And Cold In Kid

My 2 year old had a fever of 104.5 7 days ago and lasted 1 day...went down with Motrin. She was fine the weekend and then 4 days ago she was up all night with a terrible cough that lasted all night and into the day til the Dr. told me to use Mucinex DM. It was a miracle. Now its 2 days later and she woke up crying with a fever of 102.5. The doctor said if she got another fever to bring her in. What do you think I should do or what do you think she has. This is all followed with a running nose.

Hi,
from history it seems that she might be having viral infection.
But as there is relapses often requires some investigation like complete blood checking to know type of infection.
After report proper treatment will cure her cough and fever.
Meanwhile continue with Mucinex DM and Motrin.
Ok and take care,
I find this answer helpful
