6 year old female, had sinus infection and finished antibiotics about a week ago. Today she was lethargic, and complained of sore throat, fever of 102F, diarrhea x1 and vomitted x 1. Gave motrin, fever is down, but still tired. Intake/appetite is much better. Lymph nodes are not swollen. Allergies, food poisioning??
HI, thanks for using Chat Doctor She may have a new onset upper respiratory infection (cough/cold) since she has a sore throat. These are normally viral but can be associated with vomiting and loose stool (diarrhea not diagnosed unless 3 loose stools have occurred). Allergies do not usually cause an increase in temperature. Treatment with the pain/fever medication was a good idea and should be continued. Allow her to rest and use fluids. I hope this helps
