What Do Painful Red Rashes Behind The Head Indicate?
my 14 yr. old grand daughter has dry patch on back of head and is very red - also has swollen eyes that are almost shut and very goopy. the eyes are painful too. she vomited this morning and has 103 temperature. very high heart rate 150 to 160 beats per minute! She can t keep anything down in her tummy. Very dizzy and weak especially when she moves.
Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
* As there is high grade fever, the red eyes and weakness with high pulse indicate secondary manifestations of underlying pyrexia from various reasons. I would recommend to consult her pediatrician and get basic lab tests done to get the further diagnosis and precise management.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
