What Causes Stomach Upset, Fever, Chills And Joint Pain?

My daughter has developed flu like symptoms yesterday, She had an upset stomach and did not eat. She had feverish spells turning into chills. Most alarming was that she said her joints were very painful and when she woke up this morning there wask actual bruising on the joint areas. She is feeling slightly better today and is less symptomatic. Does she just have the flu?

Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern. As per your query your daughter have symptoms of stomach upset, fever, chills and joint pain which seems to be due to gastroenteritis which is a viral infection. It could be due to food intolerance and electrolyte imbalance in body as well. Need not to worry. I would suggest you to lessen use of milk and milk products. You should take tab norflox tz twice daily with tab lomotil twice daily for 3 days. You should take soft, plain, non-spicy foods. Drink lots of water to maintain adequate hydration. Avoid fast foods, carbonated drinks & gas producing food products like cabbage, etc. Visit gastroenterologist once and get it examined if symptoms keeps on persisting. Avoid stress.

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.

Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
