HI
Thank for asking to HCM
I really appreciate your concern for your child, looking to the history given here the chances of viral fever is very likely and you need to manage this symptomatically for the fever Syrup Acetaminophen can be tried for the loose stool just do nothing but watch for the dehydration, keep a close watch on general condition, dehydration is the only matter of concern, take care and have a nice day.
