Suggest Treatment For High Fever, Cough And Runny Nose In Children
My 3 year old son had a sinus infection with cough, clear lungs and ears. Took anti-biotic 10 days, finished the dose and now 3 or 4 days after he is coughing and runny nose again, and now a 100.4 fever. it's like the whole thing has started over. Tomorrow is Saturday, what should I do?

Hi there,
Recurrent sinusitis needs to be attended carefully. How about his acitivity during these days? I would suggest you to do a Blood culture and antibiotic sensitivity testing to select appropriate antibiotic this time and CRP levels for monitoring.
You should consult a ENT specialist and might need X-ray sinus view or CT scan.
Thank you!
