Hi,I am Dr. Santosh Kondekar (Pediatrician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
My son is 6 and has cerebral palsy. I took him the walk in today has the school called me. It turns out he has got a throat infection and they gave me anti biotics. I told the nurse that he had nt eaten or drank anything all day and she told me to make sure when i got him home that he had a drink and then a big wee. When we got home he did have a little wee and then i managed to get him to have 4 sips of milk but he has nt had a wee since and he has been asleep for the past 2 and a half hours. Should i be worried
By what you have explained, I feel that your kid might be having a viral sore throat or a streptococcal infection. I suggest you to 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.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
