Suggest Medication For Stomach Pain And Diarrhea

My 4yr old daughter had fever with stomach pains specifically in the belly button area, diarrhea and we re kinda concerned on the color of the stool which is iced tea color . For 3 days she had slight fever but her stomach pains persist and stool color is the same although she is still playful. What do you think is she suffering?

Pediatrician,  's  Response
hi, stomach pain and diarrhoea in a 4 year old child can occur due to stomach infection due to acute gastroenteritis. It usually occurs when child eat something from outside. Fever can also be present. The main thing that we have to take care in loose motion is dehydration so you should give more Fluids to child. Give ORS solution so that hydration can be maintained. prebiotic like enterogermina ampule should be given once a day for 3 days to increase intestinal immunity. Curd is a natural prebiotic and it also helps in increasing intestinal immunity. if loose motion persist then antibiotic needs to be started. An examination by doctor should also be done so that we may not miss any important finding. I hope this will help you. Wishing your child good health. Take care.
