Is There Any Way To Help Process The Milk Protein In The Body?
Hello Dr. Grief, My four year old daughter has had a fever that has ranged from 101-104 for three days. She has also had acid reflux and stomach ache with the temperature. She has a milk protein allergy and was given casein protein on her teeth by her dentist five days ago. She has now developed a congested nose. She used to get sick this way if she came in contact with milk, but not the high temp. It does go down with medicine, but quickly returns once meds are done. Is there any way to help her process the milk protein in her body. Should I take her to her doctor tomorrow? Thank you so much, Sleepless Mama

HI, thanks for using healthcare magic
High fever and nasal congestion may mean that she has the common cold or flu.
This can be treated symptomatically with decongestants and fever medication (paracetamol or children's advil).
The decongestants would be available over the counter.
Rest and fluids would also be important.
I hope this helps
