Patient's question:
A child is 11 years old. He has night classes in the evening. During the night classes, he is as lively as ever with no signs of trouble. But when he finishes the class and gets home, the moment he gets out of the car, he says he has a headache, and then starts vomiting. It has been two hours already, and there is no improvement. What on earth could be the matter? It's very cold outside, and it's not convenient to go to the hospital. Please ask my friends for advice!! I am very urgent!Doctor's answer:
Medical Analysis: Headache and vomiting are symptoms of increased intracranial pressure. The cause may be meningitis, brain edema, or even brain hemorrhage in severe cases.Recommendation: It is recommended to go to the hospital immediately. Keep the child warm by wearing a hat. Otherwise, the consequences will be very serious. Go to the hospital right away, immediately, see a neurosurgery or neurology department, and have a head CT done immediately.
