Detailed Answer:
Hi
Thanks for writing to us.
I understand that your son has severe stomach ache with vomiting and fever.
There could beany causes for this like gastritis, food poisoning, viral infection, appendicitis, intestinal obstruction, pancreatitis.
Only a proper clinical examination by a paediatrician or a doctor will help in identifying the cause.
You can give paracetamol and consult a nearby health facility soon.
It is better not to delay visit by taking over the counter medicines.
Give him oral rehydration solution like electral in sips frequently till you visit.
