Suffering From Cough, Vomiting White Mucus And Pain In Body. Solution?
My son has now had a cough for 3 days, with little to no sleep. He also is vomiting frothy white mucus or everything he intakes. He also complains of being in pain all over his body. Every time I try to give him meds he just coughs and throws it up. He is drinking alot of water. But I am not sure if I should call his doctor.

Hi welcome to Health care magic forum.
Thanks for calling H.C.M.
Severe cough with sputum, vomitings, and body pains means there is severe infection in the chest, and fever might be there though the body is cool.
I advise you to consult a doctor for diagnosis and treatment, other wise it may lead to chronic infection and may involve the heart as well.At least it is urgent to controle the vomitings first.
X ray chest besides other routine tests for confermation of the disease may be necessory .
best regards.
