What Could Sore Throat, Fever, Nausea And Fatigue In A Child Indicate?
Hello my ten year old daughter became ill with sore throat, fever, nausea, dry cough and weakness she was ill for ten days. Though she still has a cough she is still quite weak when walking especially upstairs. Could this be something other than a flu?
Hello dear, Welcome to HCM. The most common causes are viruses. Viral infection usually take 7-10 days to get better,adenovirus-21 days.I suggest- 1.Consult your paediatrician to rule out bacterial complications(bronhitis,pneumonia,sinusitis,tonsillitis).In this case she might require antibiotic therapy. 2.Hot drinks:ginger,lemon,turmeric powder tea 3.Lozenges(Strepsils,sualin 1 tablet 4 times) 4.Take steam inhalation 5.Antihistamine: Cetrizine 10 mg can be used daily at night 6.Couph syrup Kuka 5 ml 2 times,tulsi juice 7.Zincovit 5 ml 1 time for 1 month for boosting of immunity Recovery soon Dr.Sagar Gaurav Shrivastva
