Anything Also Go See PD

We have an almost 2-yo and my hubby is the kind that anything also see doctor. Personally unless high fever and not affecting toddler’s appetite/happiness I feel it’s too much meds for my LO? For example for the past 2 nights LO has disrupted our sleep (3-4 times awake and cried at night - while normally LO can sleep through the night) because of runny nose. And hubby wants to bring to PD again tomorrow. LO just saw another A&E PD at KKH for fever 2 weeks back and was precribed Illadin also, to which we had little success in applying. Should LO still see a PD?

My LO is around same age and we face the same problem. I realised the PD usually give the same course of treatment, so my wife and I don't bring her to the PD unless it's a symptom we never see before of its really high fever. We also have illadin and a ventolin puff which we find to be quite effective; have to just force them to take the meds. Try giving children vitamins to boost the child's immunity and recovery. Other than that, it's just letting ur LO recover on their own.
