Suggest Treatment For Persistent High Fever In A Child
my 5 year old daughter has had high fevers consistently for 5 days now. Her dr put her on zithromax but she doesn t seem to be getting better. She had some vomiting during the week but otherwise just coughing with a lot of congestion. Just now I was brushing her hair and noticed when she coughed what seems to be a soft spot bulges a little bit. Is this normal? I brush her hair all the time and have never noticed a soft spot.

For persistent high fever, first of all you have to go for blood investigation to isolate the cause. You can give her syrup zifi-cv or moxikind-cv after an expert advice along with tynol-plus or brufen junior for high grade fever. Give her vomikind or onset for vomiting and bro-zedex or asthakind for cough. Do cold sponging to reduce the temperature of her body.
