Question
A 6-month-old baby developed a fever due to tonsillitis, and the doctor treated the condition with enema therapy, prescribing oral spray Kaojia Bao and pediatric paracetamol and chlorphenamine granules. Although the fever subsided, the baby experienced dry vomiting after the last dose of medication and continued to vomit during nighttime feeding. What could be the cause of this situation?
Answer
Hello, for a baby’s tonsillitis and fever, it is recommended to go to the hospital for routine blood tests, erythrocyte sedimentation rate, and CRP test to confirm the condition. Consider using pediatric Yanyan granules or Lianhua Qingwen granules for treatment, while encouraging the baby to drink plenty of water, maintain a light diet, rest well, and have follow-up checks. If there is a high fever, consider taking oral acetaminophen suspension.
