Hi, Lipy,
Tanks for query.
Your child is suffering from acute gastroenteritis.
As she has given Taxim-O,its effect will start now and she will feel better.
Give her plenty of water and Electrolyte sachets.
Give her light diet.
Ok and bye.

Hi,
Thanks for posting your query.
Your child is most likely suffering from acute gastroenteritis as constipation never causes fever.
You should continue taxim-o and should also give antispasmodics and antipyretics.
You should also consult with pediatrician.
Best regards,
Dr. Mayank Bhargava

Hi welcome to HCMForum. Achild is like a flower he should be treated very gently. Your doctors treatment is O.K, if he dont passstools it is not a big problem or you can go to your doctor for follow up . Now you should rush to your doctor. The anti biotic he has given should be changed as it shoud not be given while he is passing stools. any how dont worry he will be fine. never give him cremaffin that too in repeated doses. if breast feeding mother should not eat nonvegetarian foods spices and chillies. dont give the baby junk foods . thanks for calling.
