Hi Dear,
Welcome to HCM.
Understanding your concern. As per your query your infant have symptoms of
diarrhea and vomiting which can be caused by
viral fever due to
gastroenteritis. Lowered immunity of body causes increased susceptibility of getting infected. Need not to worry. Usually viral symptoms will resolve in one week on its own. I would suggest you to
1) Avoid intake of outside and hot, sharp and spicy liquids.
2) Drink plenty of fluids, have proper rest.
3) Do warm saline gargles. Take anti-inflammatory medications such as
Ibuprofen to prevent fever and body-ache.
4) Take
analgesic such as Flexon and take light diet.
5) You should do tepid sponging as well if fever is of high grade.
Your symptoms will resolve in 3-4 days. If symptoms keeps on persisting visit general physician once and get it examined and start treatment after proper examination and prescription. Go for blood tests a s well.
Hope your concern has been resolved.
Get Well Soon.
Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
