What Causes Stomach Pain And Rashes On Knees,arms And Thighs?
My 4-year old son has been complaining of stomach pains the last 5 or days. Yesterday he woke up with a rash on the back sides of his knees, under his arms, and on his thighs. He also started complaining of sore throat. I took him to the local clinic and they gave him a z-pak and sent him home, saying the sore throat was caused by sinus drainage. He started throwing up when we got home. I m really concerned with the stomach pains and his decreased appetite and the rash. Can you help me, please?!

Hello,
Probably your son is suffering from viral infection. For vomiting you may give syrup Ondansetron. Make sure he doesn't get dehydrated by offering him ORS, fruit juices, etc. If no improvement in fever you will have to consult pediatrician and get some blood investigations done.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
