Suggest Remedy For Slight Wheezing And Clammy Skin In An Infant

Hello, my 10 week old has clamy skin. He also appears to be wheezing, slightly. His temperature is within the normal range. He has been irritable over the last 24 hrs and has had trouble staying asleep...he wakes after only 10-15 minutes of falling asleep. He is eating well and has had more than 6 pee and poo diapers each, in the last 24 hours. I am wondering if I should be bringing him into emergency or if seeing a doctor can wait until the morning?

General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Hi, diarrhoea often accompany viral fever in infant. You need not to be worry. If you are breast feeding continue it and give crocin for fever. Try giving colimax drops if he could not sleep due to abdominal cramps. Check dehydration by pinching skin (dehydrated if skin pinch doesn't go back in 2 sec.) and by look (sunken eyes, irritable, thirsty). if signs of dehydration appears immediately consult doctor with continued use of ORS and keeping him warm.
