Brief Answer:
Needs Urgent medical attention.
Detailed Answer:
Hi.
Noted your history about your husband consuming Phenol a few hours ago, did vomit but there is pain in stomach and headache.
Phenyl is highly corrosive hence needs urgent medical care.
There can be systemic problems.
Hence I would advise you the following:
Rush him to the nearest Emergency care facility, get admitted for observation, immediate treatment as per the clinical findings, further investigations and management.
Please do not try anything at home.
Also needs proper follow up for possible ulcer, stricture formation and any other complications if found.
I hope this answer helps.
Please give follow up.
