When should you take your child to the ER for a cold?

Children should be brought to the ER if their cold is accompanied by earache, a fever over 102 degrees, skin rash, labored breathing, and severe cough.
Can you take your child to the doctor for a cold?
Most colds last seven to 10 days. If your child’s cold lasts longer than 10 days, you need to consult a doctor as it might be a bacterial infection that will require antibiotics.
How can you tell a cold from COVID?
While both the cold and COVID-19 infection are caused by viruses that cause similar signs and symptoms, there are a few major differences. A cold never comes with diarrhea, nausea, and vomiting. It also rarely involves muscle pain, fatigue, and fever.

Yes. Most of our pediatric urgent care centers are open after hours, making health care more accessible for all residents in NYC.
