my 15 year old daughter went to the Dr. on Tuesday with a fever of slightly less than 101 and a cough.  she said her chest hurt  while coughing.  She had a fever for only one day.  The Dr. didnt hear wheezing but prescribed a z pack just in case.  Could she have had bronchitis but it wasnt picked up or could it have been a sinus infection.  Her fever disappeared yesterday but returned at night.  It was only 100..  Today, she woke up and felt fever free but when i took her temperature, it said 99.4  Do you think she will need more antibiotics? She only has one left for tomorrow?
Hi, Welcome to ChatDoctorI understand that you are concerned whether your daughter should continue antibiotics or not. I suggest she completes the full course of antibiotics to avoid recurrence. Based on the symptoms mentioned in your query, she definitely is suffering from lower respiratory tract infection and antibiotics were necessary to be prescribed. She does not need to take any fever medications. Fluid diet and at least 3-4 liters per day is recommended. Thanks.
