Fever: There are many reasons for illness in summer time. Many viruses can cause fever with cough and cold . More important is to see your pediatrician to make sure , there is no ear infection or any other reason for the fever where he may need antibiotics. Otherwise Supportive care with fever suppressants and Increase fluid intake will help tide over this illness
