Does Fever,headache,vomiting And Pain In Arms And Legs Require Emergency Care?
My 6 year old daughter woke me up at 3 a.m. Throwing up in complaining about a headache. Woke up this morning she is very irritable has a fever of 101 and is complaining about her arms and legs hurting really bad my head along with a headache. She wont eat... and will only drink water. She has never acted like this when she has been sick before. If she gets up to move she starts crying about her legs and arms hurting. No congestion or coughing. Should i take her ti ER?

Better to take your child to ER and get examined. Compliaing if severe headache and pain and irritability are need to be taken care and get evaluated early.
