Fever in a child is : usually related to an infection by a virus or a bacteria. Viruses can cause cough and cold sx, GI sx, or sometimes just a fever and aches. They are contagious but resolve without Rx. Bacterial infections are things are strep throat, pneumonia, ear or kidney infection. If the calpol reduces the fever, ok to treat at home 2-3 days but if breathing problem, severe headache, pain, see your doctor

My daughter Leruri is battling to breath. I suspect nasal congestion. We administered allergex, calpol and salex but she isnt getting better. She doesnt have fever, she isnt coughing but seems to have difficulty swallowing. It seems her lips are getting bruised but were not sure. I just suspect that were paranoid. She sleeps just a bit and wakes up crying. ?
