Call your doctor: If he is having problems breathing, take him to the nearest emergency room. If his breathing is ok, you should call your doctor right away to report the illness and get appropriate advice for his care. In the meantime, you can give Acetaminophen based on his weight and encourage breast milk, formula or water until your doctor calls you back with his advice.

Call your doctor: Very young children may develop severe disease from infections in a relatively short time. I recommend not taking risks and call your doctor.

Call your doctor: Contact your primary health care practitioner. You can give your son acetaminophen, nonaspirin pain reliever, infant drops, 80 mg or the dose for his weight as stated in information from your primary health care practitioner.
