General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Hi
I appreciate your concern for your beloved grandson.
Incomplete data like any associated symptoms like burning urination, abdominal pain, diarrhea or constipatio, or cough or cold, etc.

After having gone through the symptoms described in your query, it seems to me that your grand son is most probably having some sort of urinary tract infection or an early presentation of inflamed appendix.

I would therefore advise you to take him to the doctor for proper clinical examination and relevant lab tests like CBC, Urine examination, an abdominal ultrasound scan, to ascertain the diagnosis.

Hope I could answer your query.
