Child With Pain In The Knee, Jaw And Penis. Reddish Eyes With Nasal Discharge. Should I Take Him To Doctor?

My son 3 days ago complained of his jaw, and knees hurting. So far he s thrown up, threw up the Ammox/clav ( Augmentin ) I had him keep some down by taking it slowly with his other meds. He is complaining of (penis pain Feels like a hair in there ) Knee pain , jaw pain, bright red eyes. Tearing up. Gooey nose discharge. The hospital did strep culture. came back neg. But his tonsil is very swollen and pussy) His fever is still up and down. and very prominent. Should I take him to the pediatric center or should I continue my Natural remedies. Sugar water, pedialight, the candy and pops. And warm baths for fever?

Pediatrician 's  Response
Hi,

Thank you for your query.

With all the complaints mentioned by you I believe that your son needs to be examined by a doctor so that he can be treated for the problems that he is having. I fail to understand why he is receiving Augmentin without being examined and investigated for the problems. You can continue with paracetamol/acetamenophen and bath to reduce his temperature till you see the doctor.

I hope I have answered your query to your satisfaction.

Wishing an early recovery to your son.

Regards,

RKK
