Cough and Fever
My son, 11.5 yrs has been suffering from fever and cough since last 3days. He is taking Azee 500 twice a day and Dolo 650mg for fever. The symptoms have reduced a bit, but cough and fever aren't settling down. Fever is between 101- 102 every 7-8 hrs. Should I consult the doc again? Why hasent fever settled till now. When will it go off?

Hi thanks for writing to Practo consult.  Fever usually remains for around 2 days. If it's has crossed 2 days you better revisit.
