Suggest Treatment For Vomiting And Fever
Hi Doctor, I am very much worried. We live in Dubai. We are from Kerala. My 5 year old son was hospitalised for 3 days before one month due to vomiying and fever. Doctor said it is food poison. He was under antibiotic treatment for 5 days. After 2 weeks tome he again had high fever 102. He was again provided augmentin anti biotic but fever continued. At last he was given antibiotic injection for 2 days, augmentin syrup and voltaren for a week. He was ok after that. Now it is night 1.10 here. Fever started again and now it is 101. My family will be traveling to Kerala afrer 2 days. Could you please tell me tje reason for the continuos fever? Is it related to tuburculosis? Or any other type of fever? What are the test to be taken ? He had gone through bllod tests and doctor said us that the count is very high. I expect your valuable reply by tomorrow please. Regars- Valsan YYYY@YYYY

Hi,
Welcome To Healthcare Magic.
I had gone through your query and can understand your concern regarding to your child’s health.
I have seen number of patients with same complain. According to your child’s history, he has recurrent history of fever and GI infection and his blood test report shows increased WBC. Though he wants to travel to Kerala, you should go for an opinion of pediatrician with all his medical records as early as possible.
Till that time, I suggest you to give him liquid-Ondansentron (if no allergy), 7.5 ml, twice in a day at the interval of 12 hours for 1 to 2 days to stop vomiting and liquid-Ibugesic-Plus (if no allergy), 6.25 ml, 3 times in a day at the interval of 7 to 8 hours for a day or two. Give him maximum liquid intake to maintain fluid level in the body such as ORS tetra-pack.
After doing these, I hope your child will get well sooner and further queries are always welcome.
Wish your child good health.
Take Care, Thank You.
