Rattly chest

My 1yo hasn’t been well for 5 days. Started as cold but day 2 had a temp of 40 and was very lethargic. Since then he’s not been himself but not as high a temp. He’s had a bad cough and has a rattle when he breaths - you can feel it with your hand on his chest.
is this something you wait to get better or could it be a chest infection? Spoke to dr when he had the high temp and they said to just keep an eye on him, I don’t want to waste their time if there’s nothing they can do. He’s been tested for covid and it’s not that. He’s also had bronchiolitis before and it’s not that bad.

I’d be ringing the GP tomorrow for him to be looked at. Say he’s not improved and his chest is rattling.

Thanks. I always worry I’m bothering them, I’ve taken him to dr with a cough before and been told he’s fine.
