Hello,

Many viral infections of new born do take time to recover over a period of time , which varies from type of viral load. Following measures will help you for her better outcome:
- Discuss the need of further antibiotics with her pediatrician (as usually it is not effective and needed at 9 days post infection)
- Inhalation of vapors of boiled water (placing vessel nearby taking care that she does not get burns)
- Room temperature maintenance
- Avoid air conditioner or cooler air
- Adequate breast feeding to combat the natural immunity and fight against underlying infection

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Bhagyesh V. Patel, General Surgeon
