My 6 year old daughter started out last Thursday with a 102 temp. She didn't feel well until Sunday. Friday and Saturday the temp was around 100. Sunday she felt much better but then Monday she woke up with a cough.
She does have a bit of a runny nose and the cough is very loose. She coughs all through the night for the most part. I have given her cough medicine, put Vick's on her chest and had the vaporizer in her room, but still the coughing wakes her up several times a night.
She happened to have a cold when school started last year and my brother thinks it could possibly be allergies. To me, it seems she just has an infection like many others right now.
I didn't think with allergies you would cough so much. She did just start the first grade so she is very run down right now as well. First time going to school all day every day.
Last year when she had a cold at this time it only lasted about 2 weeks.
Do you cough and carry a temp of 102.5 if it's allergies?
