What should I do if my 5-year-old has had a cold and cough for a month, difficulty breathing at night due to a stuffy nose, and a fever for the last 4 to 5 days that keeps coming back despite giving him Crocin, especially now that he is also refusing to eat?

Since your little boy has had a cold for a month, a recurring fever for 4 to 5 days despite Crocin (paracetamol), and is refusing to eat, he needs to be evaluated by a pediatrician promptly. A prolonged illness with a persistent fever can suggest a secondary infection that requires specific medical treatment. In the meantime, you can use saline nasal drops to gently clear his stuffy nose before sleep and offer frequent, small sips of water or oral rehydration solutions to prevent dehydration. Please schedule a doctor's visit today to help him get some much-needed relief.
