Suggest Treatment For Fever,cough And Vomiting In A Child
My 9 yr. old has had a fever between 100 & 103 with a horrible persistent cough & vomiting. He has no appetite or energy at all and very weak. He is very pale in the face & looks so sick. I have been giving him tylenol but it only mildly treats the fever for just a few hours. This has been going on for over 6 days now & he s getting worse it... seems not better. PLEASE HELP. -worried mom from WA. State

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
You need to go to a pediatrician as early as possible and get some blood investigation done. If your child is dehydrated and lethargic he may need intravenous fluid, antiemetic or probably antibiotics depending upon blood reports.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
