My daughter is one, 2 days ago she lost her appetitw and isnt interested in milk or water. Iv getten her to eat a little today but shes constantly screaming. She occasionally has a slight temperature which dissapeara quick enough but thus morning she was all wobbly/shakey. Im just a bit concearned (lots concearned!) shes losing her voice through crying and now sounds rattley...
Hi...by what you quote I feel your kid is having an upper respiratory infection or laryngitis. That's why the kid is losing voice too. Because of upper respiratory inflammation the kid is finding it difficult to swallow. I suggest - 1. Rapid streptococcal antigen test. If its positive - go ahead with antibiotics - Amoxicillin for 10 days.2. If its negative - do a throat swab cultures and start antibiotics... If culture is negative stop antibiotics. If positive continue antibiotics for 10 days.3. Treat fever and pain with oral Paracetamol. Regards -
