What To Do For Vomiting And Fever In Child?

I have a five year old boy who vomited last night, vomited again this after noon. He s eaten little, and drank ginger ale today. He has had a fever of over 100 today. I ve given him recommended dosages of children s tylenol, but the fever (though it s dipped) has not gone away. Now his eyes are watering. I ve telephoned his doctor, and am awaiting his response. Is this common?

Hello,

It is simply a viral fever. A child needs rest, plenty of fluids. Needs paracetsmoul if fever crosses 99 *F.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care
