Fever with bad cough suggests a respiratory tract infection. Does he experience chills or so? Could u please mention his age?
Next Steps
Does he have cough with sputum or without it? A higher dose of Paracetamol needs to be given
Health Tips
Keep giving him warm water for drinking n steam inhalation is a must, 3-4 times a day
