What Is The Cause Of Fever, Vomiting, Headache And Nausea In A Child?

My 5 year old son has had a fever of almost 101 for 2 days now. He does not want to eat and wants to sleep all the time which is very unusual for him. He has been complaining of a headache and has also been nauseous and vomiting occasionally for the last 24 hours. Could it just be a bug he picked up from school or something that needs to be seen by a doctor?

Hello,

Yes, most likely is an infection ( viral, bacterial ) that is causing your son's symptoms. Since there passed 2 days, it is advisable to see the Pediatrician for a more accurate evaluation and treatment.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care
