Suggest treatment for vomiting and skin rash in a child
Patient: My 5 year old daughter complained she wasn t feeling good at dinner, then threw up before bed. She had a rash on her inner thighs and arms. We gave her children s benedryl. Her temp was 95 but we thought we just had a bad thermometer. We just checked on her and she threw up in her sleep and feels very cold. Any suggestions? Doctor: Hi,By what you say I feel that your daughter might be going through a viral illness. Unless she is extremely lethargic or having severe diarrhea with blood or having altered sensorium, you need not worry.Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
