Child Smelled Something Weird, Has Bad Taste In Mouth, Dizziness, Sudden Headache. Remedy?

My daughter suddenly smelled something weird, whilst talking to me ..just now. Then she had a bad taste in her mouth, dizziness , and a sudden headache . The headache is more between her head and her neck ..lower back of head. She had a boil on her back yesterday. I cleaned it and removed some of the infection. She s very healthy, but allergic to pork.

Pediatrician 's  Response
Dear eru I am sorry to hear about your daughter. The history suggest she may have got a throat infection
(bad taste in the mouth)along with infection internal ear(Labyrinthitig) through the tube which connect
throat with ear. that probably the cause of her headache and dizzyness. I suggest you should take her
to doctor to check her. You said you have taken out some infection from the boil! What did you do?
Have you squised the boil and took the pus out? Please never ever do that it can produce many
complicatios like cellulitis, septaesemia. Doctor will give her appropriate antibiotics and put dreesing
over the wound. Kindest regards Dr.SK Mukherjee
