2 Year Old Child, Spikes In Temperature. Taking Rocephlin. Abnormal Blood Count. Mono Infection?
Hi my daughter is 2 years old. Three days ago her temp spiked to 103 so i took her to our local hospital. The dr has gave her rocephlin in three doses. She already had two doses for what the dr believes that she has a viral infection but her blood count isnt right... Im jusy wondering if her symptoms are normal. I take her home and she has sleepless nights, she hasnt been eat or dribking like usual and her temperature keeps spiking. Since the rocephlin she had a bowel movement once, but she keeps grabbing at her tongue and trying to put her fingers down her throat . The dr lead thia to be mono but in unsure. Thanks for the help..
by history this seem to be viral .
but one clue is there that baby is not able to feed or drink . this may be due to throat infection .which may be due to bacterial .
give paracetomol for fever.
consult your pediatrician for throat infection .and dicision to start antibiotic
thanks
