What Is The Treatment For Fever And Sinus Infection?
My 12 yr old son has ran a fever between 100 -101.5 for 9 days. According to dr thought it was the flu and a sinus infection. 5 days on amoxicillin and no change. On day 8 his eyes became bloodshot. Returned to to dr. And had bloodwork ordered. Had more cold like symptoms earlier, now not so much but has a little bit of cough. Fever spikes at night to 102-103. Any thoughts? We are quite worried.

Hi,
It seems that he might be having respiratory tract bacterial infection or even typhoid is also likely.
Wait for blood report and then your doctor will go for treatment accordingly.
Go for S. Widal test for typhoid as well.
Give him liquid diet.
Give him plenty of water and liquids.
Give him complete rest.
Ok and take care.
