My 6 month old had a fever 3 days ago (reaching 103.5 degrees)...the doctors did not find anything at the time saying it was probably a virus...now he had gone the past 4 days with low temperatures, particularly at night, down to 96.7 degrees. He also has a stuffy/runny nose and has been extra sleepy. When he is awake during the day he acts normally. He also is sweating while being cold to the touch, scarily cold feeling sometimes...any thoughts??
HI.your son is recovering from a viral cold and will be fine. Do not worry. Cough and cold are viral 95% of the times in child Chat Doctor.  For cold, you can use anti-allergics like cetirizine and for nose block, saline nasal decongestants will do. Paracetamol can be given in the dose of 15\u00a0mg/kg/dose every 4-6th hourly, that too only if fever is more than 100F. I suggest not using combination medicines for fever, especially with Paracetamol. For nasal block, plain saline nasal
