My daughter has a fever, has secretions, and a cough, when should I consult?

If your child has a fever along with nasal secretions and a cough, it is recommended to consult a doctor. However, you can try using saline nasal spray to help alleviate the nasal secretions and encourage your child to drink plenty of fluids. Acetaminophen can be used to reduce the fever, but make sure to follow the correct dosage based on your child's weight. If the fever persists for more than 3 days or if your child's condition worsens, it is important to seek medical advice.
