Suggest Medication For Diarrhea & Passing Of Blood,high Fever & Chest Conjestion
My 5 month old went to ER three days ago for a 104 fever and bloody diarrhea. She also has chest congestion. I just noticed a small purple patch on her ear? Should I be concerned? They think she has some type of infection and is currently antibiotic.
