We are currently seeing children and adolescents with viral upper respiratory infections: severe nasal congestion and secretions, sore throat, occasional vomiting and fever for 2-3 days. These symptoms are followed by a dry, persistent cough that may last for 7-14 days. Call us if the fever lasts greater than 3 days or if symptoms last longer than 2-3weeks or if your child has been exposed to COVID-19.
