How Can Stomach Ache And Fever With Unusual Bowel Movement Be Treated?
4 year old daughter- sudden onset of vomiting only once but has had bad stomach ache since. She did run a fever the day she vomited- not since. Sometimes she seems fine others laying on couch because of belly ache. Has eaten and not eaten belly ache with both. Had a strange BM- looked like a jelly fish ball. Very concerned.

Hi Dear,
Welcome to HCM.
Understanding your concern. As per your query you have symptoms of stomach pain with fever and dusturbed bowel movements which seems to be due to viral infection leafing to acute gsstroenteritis. Need not to worry. Give child plenty of fluids to maintain hydration of child. You should visit pediatrician once and get it examined and start treatment accordingly. You should give child complete rest and proper course of antibiotics such as Ciprofloxacin along with proton pump inhibitors such as Famotidine. You should give child oral rehydrating solution. Give child small and frequent meals rather than giving large meal at a time. Avoid giving outside food to child.
Hope your concern has been resolved.
Get Well Soon.
Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
