I'm really concerned about my 5-year-old son. He's been dealing with a cold and cough for the past three days. We've been giving him escrodil syrup and ambrodil, but he's still not feeling better. What else can we try to help him feel better?

I'm a bit worried about my family member. He had a cold on the 14th and 15th, and then on the 16th, he started having a fever along with a headache and pain in both legs, which kept him up all night. Whenever he gets a fever, his legs usually hurt too. Weve been giving him crosin and other meds as advised by a clinic doctor. He seemed okay this morning, but now the pain is back. Hes really sensitive, so Im looking for guidance on how to help him feel better. What do you think we should do?
