Cold and fever
My 3 year old is getting episode's of cold cough stuffy nose and fever upto 102 degrees very frequently say some time twice a month to every month once from past 4 months. Each time cold last for about a weak during which fever comes down after dose of paracetmol syrup and then go again after 4 to 6 hrs. This occurs for the whole period of cold. During fever he some time breaths faster. He remains playfull and active during the episode of cold Takes his food on time with some fussing. Is there something to worry about or this is seasonal as winter is setting in. We live in gurgaon

No,nothing to worry about. Most fevers in children are viral in origin and take 3-7 days to subside completely. Yes,gurgaon is very polluted in winters and illness episodes are more frequent.
