Looking for some advice, not sure what to do. My 4yo came down with a chest infection 10 days ago, high temp, coughing, doctor could hear a crackle across her chest so prescribed 5 days antibiotics. Great, temp has let up, she is much happier, but since finishing the antibiotics 5 days ago, she still has an awful chesty cough, and it appears she can't hear very well, she is constantly asking me to repeat what I've said.
With the cough still being terrible, would you be tempted to have her checked over again or, on the basis that she is fine in herself and no temp, just put it down to the cough lingering?
