[|Human|] My daughter has had a fever, chills and a sore throat since Monday. Early Tuesday morning she vomited, got swollen spots on her tongue and became dizzy, says her ear crackels. It hurts her to swollow. There are no spots in her throat, no discoloration of her tongue and she has no rash. Any suggestions as to what it may be? I m leaning toward a simple flu...
[|AI|]  Hi...it could be a simple viral illness or flu. The other possibilities are viral or streptococcal pharyngitis. I suggest you see your pediatrician and get a rapid streptococcal antigen test done. If it is positive then she will require antibiotics. If it is negative then it might be viral illness and doesn't require antibiotics at all. Cough and cold are viral 95% of the times in child Chat Doctor.  For cold, you can use anti-allergics like cetirizine and for nose block, saline nasal decongestants will do. Regards -
