Frequent cold cough and fever
I get frequent cold cough and fever every couple of months, not just in winters. I live in Bangalore.
I have consulted many doctors but they always end up giving me antibiotics to treat symptoms but not try to find and address root cause.
My IgE levels are normal (30) and phadiatop is also negative which indicates that it's not due to allergy. I had cold and cough when I took the tests.
How can I further diagnose this to find out root cause?
