There are lots of reasons to bring your child into your pediatrician's office when they have a cold - you might be concerned about their breathing, you might want to check their hydration, you might want advice on supportive care that can make his/her symptoms more bearable. But unless a concurrent bacterial infection is present, one thing you will hopefully not get is antibiotics. Read bellow for a doctor's perspective on this issue.

When you have a cold, I want you to know why I’m not giving you an antibiotic Know that your physician did not make that decision lightly, and they did it because they knew they were doing the right thing.
