A. Cough along with Cold most of the time is a viral illness and it needs supportive care along with proper hydration. you can give steam inhalation which is very useful . cough needs to be treated with anti allergic and expectorant bronchodilators or antitussives medicine which shouuld be given only aftegtr a proper evaluation by the doctor according to the type of cough. if fever is there paracetamol can be given to reduce the fever and the dose can be repeated after 6 hours again if required .

A. 104 or any fever more than 102° really very high if the fever reaches the brain then it’s going to be a major problem in this case I would just advise you to go ahead with the course of antibiotics if your doctor has suggested any and get a blood test done to figure out what is the actual reason behind itWrite Your Answer Here
