Periodic fever and cold

2023-01-13 13:07:11
My daughter 3 year 9 months old. From Oct month she's getting frequent cold cough. Due to cold she gets fever. Doctor told to take x ray, which showed adenoid 1.3cms. doctor gave medicines and nasal spray and told to continue for 2 weeks and stop. After stopping she got cold and fever again in nov, Dec and now. My question is, is the cold due to adenoid? Should we take x ray once again to check it? I'm afraid as to reduce fever, we are giving paracetamol. But giving it frequently is not safe. If her temperature reaches 99, she gets fits. So we are giving her paracetamol if it nears 98.7. she's under medication for fits. Please tell us what to do

It is pointless to take x-rays very frequently. If she has snoring, mouth breathing, difficulty in sleeping, you can continue the nasal spray. Cold is unlikely to be due to adenoid. Cold with fever is more likely to be a viral infection
