Child Having Headache, Protein In Urine, Vomiting, Diagnosed As Viral. What Can Be Done?
took my 7year old to hospital last night hes been suffering headaches for 5days now they found protine in his urine also (only a little ) he has vomited 3times but he says its the headache making him sick, the docs said it is a viral infection, and that my gp will be intouch, is there any info you can give me please, thanks
Headache associated with vomiting and fever may be as serious as symptoms of meningitis( infection in brain), increased blood pressure , migraine or it may be just a viral infection or refractory error of eye. It may also present in a kind of infection in kidney in which blood pressure get rises in that condition urine may be positive for some protein but there must be some urinary problem with swelling of body. If headache is associated with some disorientation it may be migraine.
So I would suggest you to consult a pediatrician for proper clinical evaluation and for symptomatic management you may have analgesic ( paracetamol or ibuprofen) and antiemetics.
Thanks
With Regards
