Why My Son Has Been Experiencing Stomach Pain At Night With Low Fever?
Question: My son has been experiencing stomach pain at night with low grade fever. Last night 37.8 and tonight 38.5 but was fine during the day. He did vomit last night but not yet tonight
Brief Answer:
He may need to get evaluated
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
I read your query and here is my advice.
I think he may need to get further evaluated in order to find the reason for the abdominal pain and fever.
I think he may need to do a total blood count with formula, an urine analysis and stool test for parasites, also a doctor may check his abdomen for possible appendicitis.
An ultrasound may be needed if doctor suspects of appendicitis.
Sometimes appendicitis ,a viral infection, urinary tract infection or parasites may be a reason for abdominal pain.
You can give him acetaminophen or buscopan for abdominal pain.
Thanks.
