Dd 2 has been ill with a virus for a few weeks now, started off as a ‘normal’ cold, went to her chest after about a week, another week later cough is still there and she was choking on phlegm while laying at night and getting a temperature around bedtime and throughout the night. Gp checked her over and said no noise on her chest and just a virus.
Over the next week the cough showed no signs of clearing, still getting a temp every evening.
Yesterday she woke up covered in hives (not allergy related) a temp, cough still there and just generally unwell
GP prescribed some Piriton and again advised chest sounds clear and no other signs of infection in ears/throat.
The hives went through the day and reappeared in the evening.
She has slept a lot today (a lot more than usual naps) and her chest sounds crackly.
It seems like she’s getting worse instead of better. Would you advise OOH?
I don’t want to be that person to contradict the GP after she’s already listened to her chest twice but I’m not sure if it’s crackly because of the loosening or an infection (especially because she’s not showing any signs of improvement)
Any advise or thoughts would be greatly appreciated
