Her symptoms?vomiting, fever, and a hoarse voice?could be caused by a viral infection like croup or a respiratory illness. To help her feel comfortable, offer small, frequent sips of water or oral rehydration solutions to prevent dehydration. A cool-mist humidifier in her room can help soothe her hoarse voice. For the fever, generic paracetamol or ibuprofen can be used, following the correct dosing for her age. Please have her evaluated by a pediatrician, and seek immediate care if she has trouble breathing, cannot keep fluids down, or is extremely lethargic.
