What could cause a young child to cough and be feverish all day?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Infection: Most often in a child there is a viral infection present when you have these symptoms. However bacterial infections including pneumonia would be a more serious concern. This child should be seen by the doctor for evaluation if fever persists.
