My son is having fever since last night. He had cough since 1 week, we saw the Doctor yesterday for it. Since the fever started after seeing the doc, we ourselves administered calpol drops (2.5ml) twice. The fever is still there and has not subsided.

May need antibiotic as cough for a week and now fever look's like cough getting infected. Calpol will work for few hours as unless until infection not getting control fever will remain. So better be in touch with your pediatrician again.
