A member asked:

4yr old son has up/down fever and dry cough for 3-4 days. it's reached 102 as he sleeps but tylenol (acetaminophen) will bring down. he acts active. concerns?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Could be viral: If the fever has come down since the beginning and cough is improving then could be viral but if after 3-4 days no improvement better let his doctor see him. I won't recommend a cough medicine without consulting his doctor. Take care.
