My 9 yr old son has a low grade fever (ranges from 99-102), consistent dry/unproductive cough, and blisters/sores on his lip for 3 days now. Been giving him tylenol/ibuprofen for his fever, lots of fluids & Vitamin C. Any ideas what he has? At what point should I take him into Dr? Thanks!
This a virus infection,,ibuprofen is fine and fluids is ok..it will take from a week to ten days to rcover...so you should stuck to what you are giving to him and no need for antibiotic
