A member asked:

My son (8) has thrown up once to twice a day for three days he also is complaining about lower back pain possible could be more than flu? no fever

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Please see Dr.: There are a number of possible reasons for his symptoms, and the only way to find the cause is to see his Dr. for evaluation. And if he's been vomiting for 3 days, I'd advise seeing the Dr. tomorrow.
