How To Treat Loose Motion In A 2.5 Years Old Child?

My daughter is 2.5 yrs and since evening she has sticky and mucous like loose motions and then she had high fever to some 103 f hence I gave her sporlac sachet and Econorm to arrest loose motions but no use. To arrest fever we first gave her crocin and then after 4 hours when the fever was 103 f we have her a sponge and then gave her maftal and finally the fever came down but loose motions did not stop. Pl let me know what is to be done ASAP.

Pediatrician,  's  Response
Thank you for the question.
It seems to me that the child is suffering from intestinal infection.
Please continue with sporlac. Meftal will reduce fever only for some time and that is not the treatment in itself.
The child needs medical attention. ASAP.
Continue feeding her with soft and light diet and plenty of ORS.
