Child With Fever And Vomiting. Has Frequent Viral Infections. History Of Jaundice. Any Suggestions?

My grandson has had the "virus" multiple times since the beginning of the year. The first time or two we all caught it but since then he has had it a couple of times with no once catching it. He had jaundice as an infant and is now 19 months old. His fever is 102 axillary today and he just vomited. This time it came on suddenly and he is very sleepy.

Hi,
It seems that your child is having stomach virus and as he is having high temperature, take him to ER.
Some blood work and x-ray chest are to be carried out to come to diagnosis.
Give enough water to bring down the temperature or preventing dehydration.
Give him syrup like paracetamol temporarily.
Ok and take care.
