What Causes Fever, Headache And Vomiting Sensation In 10 Year Old?
My 10 year old son is suffering from vomit sensation and high fever and very severe headache from last two days. Fever observed in the morning and eveing only. There was frontal minor head injury but no bleed nothing only pain complained by my sunny. CT scan done no significant symptom on any kind. Doctor prescribed Azee 250 (1and 1/2 once), Calpol (TDS if fever), and Emeset MD-4(BD) all for 3 days. 2nd day passed but no improvement please advise.

Hi..... just read through your question. I do not feel that this is related to the head injury. I feel he is having all these non specific symptoms along with headache due to a viral illness as that has been fever.
I suggest you to give only Paracetamol and avoid antibiotic Azithromycin. I do not see any need to give antibiotics for such a short duration of fever because, 95% of the kids illnesses are due to viral illness and do not require antibiotics at all.
