Cold and Cough
Hi doctor,
My son is 3+ years old and started going to preschool. He had a cough last week along with ear pain at night. We visited the doctor and they prescribed antibiotics. We have completed the required dose. Just after 2 days my kid again had a cold. We are staying in Bangalore where the weather is changing frequently. What could be the reason for the cold again and again. What are the precautions?
