I thought my son had a cold but the doctor just diagnosed it as RSV, which sounds pretty awful. Has anyone has a kid whos had RSV - what did you do to fight it?

To add on to Diana’s points, here are some signs to watch out for. Do bring your son to the doctor if he is showing any of following symptoms: - Has a high fever and doesn’t look well (grey or blue skin) - Has thick nasal discharge - Cough that worsen or produces yellow, green, or grey mucus - Showing signs of dehydration - Has trouble breathing or excessive wheezing - Showing extreme tiredness As the virus is highly contagious, do keep your son at home to prevent spreading it to others. Teach your son good handwashing habits and educate him to stay away from children exhibiting cold symptoms to prevent contracting the virus again. Hope he gets well soon! And remember to take care of yourself too!
