What Causes Severe Weakness In A Child While Suffering From High Fever?

Hi, my 5 year old was fine all day but suddenly became very tired, glossy eyes and said she was extremely weak (couldn t walk to the bathroom even). She has spiked a fever and the whites of her eyes are red now all within maybe 3 hrs. She s typically very active but no desire to even sit up and even fell asleep for a while.

Hi,

Your kid was suffering from infection. The outcome of any infection is: tiredness, fatigue, weight loss, decrease of proteins in body and due to increased metabolism person feels tired and loss of energy as happening in your kid.

Don't worry he will recover in few days. I advise you feed him balanced now and take care of his hygiene.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Soheel Hussain Zargar,
