Patient's question:
The child suddenly vomited when he fell asleep at 1:30 a.m. the day before yesterday. From 1:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., he vomited a total of four times. From the day before yesterday to yesterday, he had a fever three times. If the temperature was below 38.5°C, I gave him Motrin to take. For high fever, I used warm water to bathe him. At 3:30 a.m. today, he had a fever of 38.7°C, so I gave him Motrin and used warm water to bathe him. After drinking warm water, he broke a sweat and his fever subsided. At 3:30 p.m., he started to have a fever again. What medication should he take?Doctor's answer:
Dear Inquirer,According to your description, the baby has been experiencing dry vomiting and fever with rest, which is likely a gastroenteric cold.
Recommendation: Give the child oral Metamizole tablets, drink plenty of water, and if necessary, use antibiotics in combination. Avoid exposure to cold or extreme cold, and pay attention to rest.
The above advice is for the question, "Why did the child suddenly vomit at 1:30 AM the day before yesterday when they fell asleep?" I hope it helps you. Wishing you good health!
