Hi
Such symptoms in a 7 years old child must not be treated without doctor's advice. Bring your child to a hospital as child's physiology and diseases are different from adults. Only benadryl is not going to help. He might be need it in-hospital care. Do not panic but being him to hospital. Thank you
