Cold cough and fever
My daughter 4 years old. 2 weeks back she got cold and fever. Fever was 5 days and she recovered. Now again from Saturday she got fever. We gave Paracetamol and it didn't work for her. So doctor advised to give combiflam syrup. For 4 days she got fever once in 6 hrs. Now frequency of fever has increased. She gets for 12 hrs. My question is for how long can we give combiflam? She is undergoing medication for fits. Her platelets count has reduced due to seizure medicine. We have taken blood report too. I have attached that. Lymphocytes eosinophils has been reduced. Please explain., What the report says. How to increase her immunity as she is more prone to cold
