My daughter is sick?!


Question: My daughter is sick and is complaining of a really sore throat, headache, and earache. She even says it hurts when she swallows. I also noticed that her neck is quite swollen . She already missed a day of school and I was wondering if I should take her to the doctor tomorrow and if you have any idea what this is?

This sounds like strep. Take her to the doctor, who will want to check. Have you looked at the back of her throat? If it's red, she difinitely has strep. Doctors have meds for strep that you need a prescription for. Give her some Tylenol or something for now, to help with pain. PLEASE don't just rely on me, though, I am NOT a doctor.

sounds like a strep infection. You will need to see a doctor to gets med's for it. It has gone to the ears and throat and swollen lymph glands will be next in the side of her neck at the jaw bone.

Sounds like strep. Take her to the doctor. Make sure she takes ALL the meds, even if she feels better. If the strep virus stays in her body, it can do serious damage to her later on, including death.

yes definatly take her to the doctor TOMORROW if she starts having trouble breathing then you will need to take her to the emergency room ASAP!!! i would give her some warm tea (i like camomile) and let her soak in a warm bath, give her some tylenol or motrin for kids (depending on her age of course) keep an eye on her! hope she feels better!

The throat issue sounds like streph throat, If so you should get her to a doctor. Streph throat is treated with antibiotics and is highly contagious and the symptoms should be treated by your doctor. about the other symptoms, It sounds like flu like symptoms, But the best advice is seeing a doctor...
