Hi, my son is 9 months old. He has a fever (39.2), he only sleeps on his stomach now and keeps bringing his knees up. He cries and seems to be in pain then he farts. He hasn t had a dirty nappy for 2 days but before that he had diarrhoea for 3 days. What s wrong with him?

Hello,

Pain abdomen along with history of diarrhea suggests gastro-enteritis. I suggest you to consult your pediatrician for clinical assessment, relevant investigations and thus management.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
