My six year old son has a high fever (102-103), he has been complaining of sharp pains in his stomach and at times it gets very painful for him. He has also been vomitting and the last time he did there were black specs in the vomit and something tinted red, which I assume is probably blood since he hasnt had any food for a few days just liquid. I know these things could possibly just be part of a stomach flu, but should I take him in to get checked out or give it more time? It started Saturday night and its now mid day on Monday...
Hello and welcome to Chat Doctor, Yes, your sons symptoms sound concerning enough that he should be checked out promptly.  It is possible he may have something more than a stomach flu, such as appendicitis.  Even if it is not appendicitis, he should be evaluated since he is possibly vomiting blood and has a high fever.  You will feel better for having taken him in, and it is certainly warranted at this point. Please let me know if there is more I can add Chat Doctor.
