its viral he should rest and control fever with acetaminophen only(not asprin)
my husband has had a fever and a cough for over 10days now. not pneumonia (had xray 4 days ago) what could it be? . his fever ranges between 100-103. he is coughing up lots of mucous but doesn't feel any sinus congestion (no runny nose). he has been on an antibiotic for 5days now. he says it is helping a little but it's not taking care of the fever or cough just making the mucous less green. he had a chest x-ray 5days ago but it didn't show pnumonia should he be x-rayed again? he is also very pale in color as well as is experiencing dizziness headache and nausea. had a cbc blood work came back normal.
