Headache, Back Ache, Feverish. Relieved After Vomiting But Condition Prevails. Assistance?
Hi, my son is 13, yesterday he started complaining about a headache , it got worse throughout the day, he then started complaining that his back was really aching and he couldnt get comfortable, i gave him nurofen as he was feverish, about an hour later he vomited, he said he felt a little better so he has a small amount of dinner, he had a good sleep but doesnt feel much better but now his face is quite red, as though hes very hot

Hi,
Welcome to HCM,
It seems that your son is having viral infection giving rise to all symptoms.
Within a day or two he will be alright.
Give nurofen as and when required.
Give him plenty of water, liquids and keep him hydrated.
Give light diet.
If temperature persisted for 3 days the consult your doctor for investigations like blood count etc.
Ok and bye.
