Help. Poor DD9 had impetigo pre half term, the antibiotics gave her oral thrush, then she got slapped cheek, recovered and now has a cold sore. What can I do to boost her immune system. She hates going to Dr and we won't be able to get an appointment for 3 weeks. I am giving her multi vitamins and acidophilus tablets. Would be v grateful for any tips pse.

Poor little thing. Hope she gets well soon x
