I am not sure it this is allowed, but I am very worried and don't know where else to seek advice.
My 5-year-old daughter has had a fever for four days now (ranging 101 to 103 F) and a mild cough. I can control it with medication, but it comes back immediately after the motrin wears off.
I have taken her to see a doctor (not our normal Pediatrician, she is out of town), and he checked her ears, throat, and listened to her chest while she took deep breaths then said it is viral and we will just wait and see a few days then bring her back. So I took her back, and he did and said the same thing.
I am frustrated because I don't know this doctor, and I don't trust him. Am I just being an overly concerned mother, or should I take her to a different doctor for a second opinion.
Thanks
