Q: My 9 months old daughter has running nose, cough and mild fever. I am really scared. Is it swine flu? What degree of temperature is alarming?
A:There is no need to panic. Most likely it is common cold. If the child develops high fever (>101 degree F) or breathing difficulty or diarrhea, then consult your paediatrician.
