My 8 year old son has recently been given a blue inhaler due to a persistant cough and weeze. yeaturday he became to feel unwell with headache , weakness and looks very pail. No temperature though. He woke this moening with a sharp pain under his ribs at the left side, tender area to press and he feels it is getting worse. Any ideas as to what could be causing him to feel unwell. Thanks in advance.
Hi, It may be due to pneumonia. Accurately speaking the pain may be due to pleurisy if it occurs with respiration, or you can say taking a deep breadth. The headache may be due to sinusitis that affecting the sinuses. You should have clinical examination of the child mixing with chest X-ray and labs that include Blood CP for raised White blood cell count. You must visit your physician for the child to have accurate diagnosis and management. I hope I am successful in solving your query If You have more you can ask retake care Bye
