Hello,
First of all, if your baby is non-toxic not having a high-grade fever. There is no need of antibiotics put him on luke water gargling. Add any anti-allergic like Rigix or arinac twice a day. Give panadol three times a day and some cough relief syrup. If still there is need of antibiotics you can put the boy on intravenous.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
