Cough in baby since a Month
Hello Doc,
My baby 2.5 months had cold and cough before 1 month. His paediatrician had prescribed mucolite drops for 15 days, Sinarest AF for 5 days and then Phenergan for another 5 days when his cough did not subside...
His chest is clear and axillary temperature of 98.6. Only there is nasal block and cough since a month.
Visited 2 paediatricians and they told the same thing.
Please advise if I need to change the doc.
Do I need to start antibiotics as the cough is since a month? Please advise my next steps. I am really worried for my baby.
