Could Stomach Ache, Fever, Bilateral Knee Pain And Vomiting Symptoms Of Appendicitis?

Hi, my 4 year old has a stomach virus, she began with fever on Friday and started throwing up that night and complaint of stomach ache, I called her doctor and she said that it was a stomach virus. She vomited Saturday at 2 am and vomited some bold, the doc said she must have ruptured a capillary, she continues with fever and stomach pain, now she complains of bilateral knee pain, today is Monday and she still has fever 102.4F, she is no longer vomiting though. Could this be appendicitis?

Hi, Welcome to Health care magic forum.
It appears to be the viral diarrhea, superinfected with the bacteria. When ever there is continuous vomiting the there will be vomiting of blood, due to the rupture of the capillaries in the stomach.
I advise you to consult a pediatritian for diagnosis and treatment.
I usually prescribe to my patient with such symptoms ofloxacin, dicyclomine hydrochloride, paracetamol, and lactic acid bacilli.
I advise you to give him semisolid, or liquid diet. O.R.S, and coconut water is a preffered supliment.
Wishing for a quick and complete recovery.Thank you.
