Hi Dear,
Welcome to HCM.
Understanding your concern. As per your query your child have symptoms of fever and running nose which seems to be due to viral infection or flu. Need not to worry. I would suggest you to give paracetamol to child every 6 hrly to lower down fever. Do tepid sponging as well. You should take proper course of antibiotic Ciprofloxacin along with antiallergic medication Sinarest. You should do warm saline gargles on daily basis. Visit pediatrician once and get it examined and start treatment after proper examination. You should go for complete blood test examination. You should drink plenty of fluids.
Hope your concern has been resolved.
Get Well Soon.
Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
