 I have not dealt with that just upper res. infection  a few months ago... took some antibiotics... 2 rounds actually.

 

Have had a HEAD cold for 3 weeks!

 

This weather does not help

 

Hope your Boy gets to feeling better.

Have you checked for mold in the home??? White mold, Black mold or Pink mold??? Check your crawl space, attic or basement. Whatever it is that you have. That’s just a thought. I have a Niece that had mold in their home, it affected her husband but, not her. Their homeowners insurance fixed the home but, it almost killed her husband!!! He had to be out of the home for about 6 months. It’s nothing to play with!!!

If I get a winter cold, the cough and post-nasal drip will usually last for 4+ weeks after I finally fight off the cold.  If I get a lung infection, it can be 6-8 weeks before I finally it get all cleared out.  With this wet winter/spring so far, expect allergies to be bad as well.  

I just stay on the Over the Counter drugs to try to get a good nights sleep as I feel that is critical for healing.

Also, not sure how old  your son is, but some guys at work got me to take large amounts of Vitamin C when I was getting sick on a trip.  I was skeptical,  but it was the shortest cold I'd ever had and recovery was faster too.  I take the nature made 500 mg chewables.   That might help some if he's older. (I wouldn't try it on anyone less that 18 without discussing with his doctor first.)
