Frankly speaking most of the illness are viral, which doesn't require antibiotics... Just symptomatic treatment is enough. But you have to give some time for the illness to come down.. And regarding his frequent infection, anyone from the family members who stay with him might be giving the infection to him.  So if the people around the kid are healthy means the kid will also be healthy...
