Fever With Stomach Pain, No Appetite, Body Has Stinky Odor. Any Remedies ?
Son has had a fever for 3 days, a tummy ache, no appetite , gas, and just wants to lay around. The symptoms suggest stomache flu (which is just a virus) but I cannot be 100% that is what he has. He stinks... and I mean stinks! He has a body odor and stinky gas. I have made him shower 4x, any suggestions from fellow mommy s out there? Or can give me some remedies to move this process along?
