Pediatrician,  's  Response
Hi,

Thanks for writing to health care magic.

First of all does he have any rapid breathing or chest indrawing or stridor.
If he has any of these then you should contact your doctor at the earliest.

Please also contact your doctor if your kid has repeated vomiting, poor feeding lethargy etc.



Continue to ask further queries as required.
Hope this helps.
Take care.
