Brief Answer:
Report suggestive of gastroenteritis
Detailed Answer:
Hi
Welcome to the HCM
I have gone through your question and the report attached. Don't worry. It suggests that your child has mild infection of gut, most likely a self limiting viral illness or worm infestation. You may take the following measures to help her:
1. Keep her well hydrated by regular feeds and oral rehydration therapy such as lemonade, soups or buttermilk.
2. Give her Syp Albendazole 400 mg (10ml) tonight and repeat the same dose after 15 days. This will treat the worm infestation if present.
3. Syp. ZnD 5ml once daily for next 14 days will help in recovery of the gut epithelium and give her immunity against similar episodes in next 2-3 months.
4. There is no need for antibiotics at present.
5. You may give her Syp. Meftal Spas for stomach pain.
Hopefully this will help you. If you have any further questions, I will be happy to help you. Otherwise you may rate the question, write a review and close the discussion.
Take care
