[|Human|] Hi  I have an eight year old son he weighs 31 kilo .he is having fever, throat infection ,drowsiness  and he is talking irrelevantly ,I consulted the local doctor but he said it is due to viral fever  .all I want to know is do the children speak irrelevantly in viral fever or should I consult other doctor
[|AI|]  Hi, Thanks for posting. The symptoms you have described are quite co-existent with upper respiratory tract infection or in simple words' throat infection. But what is alarming is the irrelevant talking. This points towards meningitis. Organisms which cause common cold can also cause meningitis i.e. infection of coverings of the brain. Please do not neglect. Kindly consult a Pediatrician immediately. IV antibiotics are needed for the child to improve. Regards Chat Doctor.
