Hi,
Thank you for your query.
Viral infection can give rise to both fever and stomach infection which is most likely that your son is having. If there are no other symptoms then give your son syp. paracetamol/acetaminophen 5 ml. 4 hourly to reduce the temperature and plenty of oral fluids in the form of buttermilk, fresh lemonade, coconut water to prevent dehydration. You can get his stool examined and thereafter appropriate medication can be started.
I hope I have answered your query to your satisfaction. Please feel free to revert back in case you need any clarifications or if you would like to share more facts.
Wishing your son an early recovery.
Regards,
