Hi,I am Dr. Santosh Kondekar (Pediatrician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
My 3 year old son has had a cold and cough that has recently gotten better, still a runny nose from time to time, but he has been complaining of a headache in the front mid section of his forehead. Can he still be congested from the cold or is it something else? and what should I do? He has complained about the headache for the past 5 days now off and on.
This seems to be due to a simple common cold or viral cold. Nothing to worry about headache unless there is consistent vomiting or altered sensorium. Please give paracetamol which can tackle both headache and fever.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Sumanth Amperayani, Pediatrician, Pulmonology
