My 14week old baby's head very hot

Our lives in danger (with ref 2complaint I made against Police); what could be making different parts of my body & my 14week old baby's body hotter or colder than every other part of the body different times ((pls note he is my 2nd child)). At a particular time; it's the right side his brain (just above the right ear) that is very hot, at another time is the frontalle, or the location of his heart at back (ie the lower end of the shoulder blade), or the whole length of his left lungs, his forehead plus eyes, or the location of the major blood vessels on the neck esp the left side, or his left elbow, or armpit, or his upper back (;ust from the beginning of one of his shoulder blade to the other (this is from inside out that is the airways).

When it is not hot or cold; he's vomiting all the feed or not eating at all even though I'm breastfeeding, sometimes he brings up all the feed (that is cannot hold any down). Along with all these is sleeplessness obviously.

Surely you need to get him checked by a doctor as urgently as you can, and with Christmas so near that may not be easy.

I'm only a dad, and no medical experience at all, and I don't want to be alarmist. Is there any sign of a rash of any sort?

Please try and inform a doctor, nurse or health visitor as soon as you can.

I hope I am totally wrong on this, but I would like you to check this link, and phone a clinic as soon as you can:

Or phone your own mother, or some other knowledgeable person.

You really need to get him checked out ASAP if I was you I'd take him to A&E just to be on the safe side.
