My 4 year old daughter has cough, cold and fever from last 7 days. She is active when the fever goes down. Doctor said it's just viral. Does viral last this long? I am worried, please help.

Yes viral fever may last up to 7 to 10 days.if your child is eating well and active in between fever spikes then don't worry.if it lasts more than 10 days along with any other new symptom then consult your doctor once more.
