I'm really worried about my little one. He had pneumonia when he was just 9 months old, and since then he keeps getting sick every few weeks, like every 23 weeks or so. Now he's got a fever and cold, and he's coughing with wheezing again. Is there a pattern here, or something we should be doing differently? This keeps happening, and I feel like I'm missing something important. Would love your advice on what steps to take next.

So, I've been dealing with this fever situation where it's been recurring every 4 weeks. In the first and second weeks, the fever was really high, like between 104.1 and 104.5. We were advised to use Calpol by the doctor. And now, in the 4th week, the fever is back again. I'm really concerned about this pattern. Do you have any thoughts on what might be causing this or what steps we should take next?

Its been about half an hour since then, and he just complained of a bit of irritation on his tongue. Theres no abdominal pain or nausea at the moment. He did drink a lot of warm water afterward, but I'm still anxious about whether hell be okay or if any other symptoms might show up. Could you please let me know what I should do?
