General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

The symptoms seem to be related to a viral infection.

Some advice that I can give to you is:

-Encourage your child to drink plenty of fluids.
-Give over-the-counter Oral Rehydration Solution in addition to breast milk, formula or milk.
-Give starch food.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Dorina Gurabardhi
