Suggest Treatment For Severe Stomach Pain

Hi, my 6 year old is not feeling well. He has been complaining of a tummy ache since last night. Then about 5 hours ago he spiked a fever of 102. He then laid down after waking he was in a lot of pain (stomach) after about 15 mins it seemed to let up. I then took his temp again cause he felt super hot. Well after 3 different therometers i concluded that his temp was 96.7. He also has a cough not eating and is very tired. He is starting to worry me but we had lots of snow today and the roads are not very well right now, so i thought i would see here first if this seems like something that can wait till morning or if i need to get him checked sooner. He also does has asthma not sure if that should matter at all.

Hi.
Thanks for your query and an elucidate history about your 6 year old.
He has tummy pain, fever, cough, not eating, tired and also has asthma and the roads are blocked due to ice.

I would suggest you:
Watch for : Vomiting, loose stools or no stool / constipation and bloating.
If all these signs are not there you can give him Paracetamol, and an anti-spasmodic so that he can relax. If vomiting is not there, give him fluids orally to avoid dehydration and go to ER whenever the road block is opened.
I find this answer helpful
