Most childhood colds and fevers are caused by viruses, but a three-day fever should be evaluated. Please do not change his medicines on your own. Combiflam (ibuprofen/paracetamol), Sinerest, and Benadryl have overlapping ingredients, which can be unsafe when combined. Yes, you should consult a pediatrician (child's doctor) today. They will safely examine him, determine if it is viral or bacterial, and prescribe the correct, safe doses. For now, keep him comfortable and hydrated.
