Good day, amiable doctors and moderators in the house...God bless you all for your selfless services. Kindly direct me to a link on causes of greenishShe was given coartem tabs but she vomited about 2 or 3 doses (she has always resisted oral drugs right from birth). Right now, she's teething and has been exhibiting some of the symptoms like restlessness, sleeplessness, loss of appetite, getting irritable at the slightest things, etc. She is also coughing because she sucks on her right thumb and of course, she's crawling around. My question is should I take her back to the hospital for proper treatment of malaria (injection) because I believe the parasite is still present and I don't want to confuse malaria symptoms with those of teething.
P.S. - her body feels warm especially at night but when I checked the temperature, it was within the normal range. Sorry for the long post and thanks in anticipation of your timely response.

It is advisable to take your child back to the hospital to be seen by a paediatrician for a review and a test conducted to see if she still has Malaria.
