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 4 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 and took Motrin, along with warm water bathing. After drinking warm water, he broke a sweat and his fever subsided. At 3:30 p.m. today, 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 cough and fever with rest, which is likely a gastrointestinal flu.
Suggestion: 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 when he fell asleep at 1:30 a.m. the day before yesterday morning?" I hope it helps you. Wishing you good health!
