Suggest Treatment For Fever And Congestion In Infant
Brief Answer:
Fever
Detailed Answer:
Hello. I just read through your question.
Teething could be the cause of both the fever and congestion. If he is breathing comfortably, there is no need for concern. If, however, he begins to have difficulty with his breathing, or the symptoms persist beyond 2-3 days, I recommend consulting with your doctor.
in the meantime, you can treat his fever with acetaminophen. For the congestion, I recommend keeping a cool mist humidifier running in his room.
