Hi,
Fever not responding to antibiotics could be either a viral fever or the antibiotic is not appropriate/effective. It could be due to causes other than infection also.
Lower abdominal pain while coughing could be muscular pain.
You need to consult your family physician for basic tests that need to done to find the cause of fever.
