Welcome to the ChatDoctorVIRAL infections are common cause of cold and cough in this age group. If severe and at the suspicion of bacterial infection, antibiotics are advisable to treat them. Many a time they may take around 2 weeks to clear up. If there is no fever associated, my opinion is to wait and watch. In case there are any new symptoms like high grade fever, difficulty in swallowing or breathing or localized pain and pus collection, go for repeat consultation and a proper ENT examination.
