During a common cold, it is normal for mucus to thicken up and change from clear to yellow or green. Symptoms often last for 7-10 days.| My child is having a sore throat and ear infection. Can I give antibiotics?::: No. More than 80% of sore throats and ear infections are caused by a virus and antibiotics are not given for viral infections. If your child has a sore throat, runny nose, a barky cough, pain, and discharge from the ear, it is most likely because of a virus. Consult your child’s doctor to seek guidance.| Does a common cold caused by viruses always result in a secondary bacterial infection? When to start an antibiotic to prevent infection?::: In most cases, bacterial infections do not follow viral infections. Using antibiotics to treat viral infections may instead lead to side effects without benefiting your child’s health. Use antibiotics only after consulting with your child’s doctor.| Can Altipod 50mg/5ml Oral Suspension impact my child’s digestive system?::: Children often have a sensitive stomach and develop a stomach upset while taking antibiotics.
