Suggest Treatment For Stomach Pain And Gas Formation With Nausea And Vomiting
my daughter has been having flu symptoms for three days now, nausea, vomiting and sore throat. It began with a headache and a enlarged lymph node. The doctor recommended 2 Tylenol every four hours. She quit taking the Tylenol 6 hours before she threw up the first time. She has not eaten anything but crackers every once in a while to see if they will stay down. She tried some chicken broth, Now her stomach is pulsing with the pain and she finally had gas ( I am assuming from the chicken broth). Do we need to see the doctor?
Hi. Thanks for your query. Noted the history about your daughter having flu symptoms for three days now, nausea, vomiting and sore throat, headache, enlarged lymph node. Doctor advised 2 Tylenol every 4 hours, but she threw up, tried chicken broth, now her stomach is pulsing with pain and has gas, wants to know whether to see a Doctor. I would advise you the following: Certainly a visit to a Doctor is required as she needs the clinical evaluation, examination and relevant investigations of blood, urine and stool along with ultrasonography and prescription based additional treatment as she has added symptoms. Also needed is to check for fluid and electrolyte imbalance and to check for correction. This will help you to recover fully.
