Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic. I can understand your concern. In my opinion, you should definitely consult pediatrician and get done chest x ray to rule out lung infection (pneumonia). High grade fever, chest congestion etc are characteristic symptoms of pneumonia in children. She is not improving with anti malarial and routine antibiotic. So she might need higher antibiotics and other supportive treatment. So better not to give any drug without consulting pediatrician. Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wishing good health to your daughter. Thanks.
