Hi
He is suffering from Diarrhoea.So,he is getting abdominal pain too.
Please give him an antibiotic with combination of Norfloxacin and Metronidazole.You should add Pre and Probiotic sachets.
You should also give Oral Rehydration Solution(ORS) Scahets also.
Please don't give him outside food.
All the complaints will come down.
Wish him speedy recovery

Hi
Thanks for your query.
Your child is having diarrhea which is mostly viral in natue and takes few days to settle.
I suggest you to give oral rehydration solution after each loose stools,give lemonade,yogurt,banana,rice porridge.
Give lactobaccilus for 2 to 3 days,and zinc after consultation with your doctor.
Monitor his hydration,watch for urine output.
