What Is The Treatment For Runny Nose And Sore Throat?

My daughter is 2 almost 3 yrs old she has been complaining for about 1 almost 2 weeks now about her tummy hurts. The other day when complaining she was kneeled down pressing her tummy saying my tummy hurts. She seems alright she still plays runs around and is happy has no fever but throughtout the day shell tell me my tummy hurts maybe 3 times. And sometimes when shes playing or whatever ill ask her wheres ur ow wee at and she touches her tummy right in the center slightly above the navel and says right here. Now since yesterday she is coughing runny nose sore throat and no appetite at all and she has reddish purple under her eyes like she hasnt slept in weeks. I dont know if I should take,her to the hospital or not. Oh and she also has it looks like warts or something on her fingers around the nails and now they are spreading and getting bigger.

Pediatrician, Pulmonology 's  Response
Hi....the tummy pain of two weeks just above the navel could be due to either mesenteric adenitis or it could be due to a mild stomach flu.

Coming to sore throat - i feel that your kid might be having a viral sore throat or a streptococcal infection. I suggest you see your pediatrician and get a rapid streptococcal antigen test done. If it is positive then she will require antibiotics. if it is negative then it might be viral illness and doesn't require antibiotics at all.

Regards - Dr. Sumanth
