Suggest Remedy For High Fever

Hello doctor! I am Ranjana. My baby is 19 months old. her weight is 12.1 kgs. She is having high fever since past 2 days (from 10th june 12 noon). The doctor has prescribed calpol (paracetamol) and voltaren (suppos.) and observe till today eod. Since yesterday she did not have any other problem exept fever..but today morning she passed stool twice and I felt that her stomach is upset. Would like to know if i can give her fruits like apple, banana etc. in this condition? I have heard boiled apple is good to treat upset stomach in babies. Secondly what other food and fluids can I give in fever? (We are Indians living in Dubai.) Thanks!

Pediatrician,  's  Response
hi Ranjana, kids ll ve decreased appetite but more calorie requirement during fever so its difficult to feed them. Once she starts taking feeds, you can feed her with whatever she likes and those are easily digestible. Rice based foods, cereals, curd (not chilled and not sour) fruits and vegetables can be given. Just avoid anything that is spicy.
