Suggest Remedy For Fever Tight Stomach And Vomiting Sensation
My 3 year old son has had a fever since this past Sunday. It s been between 99-101. He also has what it seems like gas pains, he keeps burping and cries a lot. His stomach is very tight and he keeps trying to vomit. He has also been getting the hiccups and they seem to hurt him. Should I take him to his pediatrician? Any advise would be appreciated. Thank you.

Hi ..
It could be gastroenteritis, probably something he got through contaminated food or water.. or it could be part of a viral infection.
I would advise you to give him warm water to drink at frequent intervals, tender coconut water.
Probiotics like lactobacilli might help.
If symptoms are severe...or have lasted more than 2 days, it would be better if you took your son to the paediatrician...
