Hi,I am Dr. Santosh Kondekar (Pediatrician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Reason For Child Having Vomitings, Body Ache, Stomach Pain Along With High Fever
My 7 year old threw up once @ Midnight then woke up at four complaining of body aches and was running a fever over 100 degrees. Administered ibuprofen and now (9 am) fever is beginning to rise again. She also has small red dots on her left cheek about an inch below her left eye. She says her stomach hurts a little but no other vomiting yet.
Hello. I just read through your question. What you describe is consistent with a stomach virus. These are self limited, meaning they ultimately resolve on their own. Resolution can take anywhere from one day to two weeks. The most important thing is to maintain her hydration. This can be done with taking sips of clear liquids every 10 to 15 minutes. Additionally, you can continue to treat her fever with ibuprofen. As long as she remains well hydrated, she will be fine.
