Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
How Can High Fever Along With Stomach Ache Be Treated?
Hello. Took my 12 year old daughter in for a fever of 103.3 with a sore throat and body aches and stomach pains into my local walk in clinic. They looked at her throat and ears and said they looked fine. Did urine test and it came back normal. They did a blood test and her level was 8.6. They told me to just watch her fever because they couldn t not figure out what her problem was and could not give her any medicines to help. However, the Tylenol and motrin every 4 hours will not bring her temp down below 102. plus her stomach is hurting.
Understanding your concern. As per your query your daughter have symptoms of high fever and stomach ache which could be due to viral infection and could be due t gastroenteritis. Need not to worry. I would suggest you to start with paracetamol every 4 hourly. Maintain hydration of child well. Avoid giving large meals to child and give him small but frequent meals. Visit pediatrician once and get it examined. You should go for blood tests as well and start treatment after proper examination. Give curd in diet. Start giving oral re-hydration fluids sip by sip to maintain the hydration.
Hope your concern has been resolved.
Best Wishes, Dr. Harry Maheshwari
