thanks for your query
history seems that your child is suffering from URTI.
need to take antibiotic coverage for at least 3 days like amoxiclav in syp. form
also some multivitamines like tab viminta and antioxidants like lycopene like drugs
allow her bed rest for atleast 2 days. and plenty of water.
thanks.

Hi, Thanks for using HCM.

Your history suggests upper respiratory infection, secondary bacterial infection.
she needs antibiotic treatment and anti inflammatory to reduce congestion.
Warm salt water gargling 3 to 4 times a day and steam inhalation helps improve her symptoms.
medications what ever you are giving is only symptomatic, not treating cause.
Consult your doctor for examination and management.
Hope I answered your question. Feel free to ask me if you have any further queries.
Wish you good health. Take
care.

Regards
Dr. Vidya

THIS IS VIRAL FEVER AND IT TAKES 3 WEEK TO GO
GET BLOOD PLATELETS I THINK THIS WILL BE LESS
DO HYDEROTHERAPY IE LIQUID INTAKE
TAKE LIQUISD IN ANY FORM AFTER EVERY 15 NIMUTES MAY BE 2 SPPON TO 2 GLASSES AND WITH LIQUID THE PLATELETS WILL INCREASE
TILL YOU CAN IVE MEDICINES LIKE YOU ARE IVING
ADD ANTIAllerics antacid liquids and local antiallergic preprations in mouth
can take 3 week
