A member asked:
A 4 year old that's been diagnosed with pneumonia he's been throwing up and not holding down liquid or solids what else could be going on?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Mgt/M.D. visit: Vomiting is sometimes one of the symptoms of pneumonia. I would suggest clear liquids in small frequent amounts, rest and monitoring his temperature. If there is a fever for more than 48 hours, any problems breathing, pain or chills, please see your doctor. A virtual appt is available for follow up.
