Temperature: Please provide fluids, monitor his temperature, and if there is a fever or shortness of breath, please call your physician. Avoid exposure to dust, mold, animal dander and smoke. If he has a history of allergies, continue his usual allergy medication, otherwise discontinue the allergy medication. Please follow up and he may need an inhaler and/or steroids to treat his cough.
