Hi,I am Dr. Radhakrishna (Gastroenterologist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I have a 8 year old who has been complaining of stomach pains for 12 hours. She has no fever but is uncomfortable when lying done on her back in bed. She also has chapped lips. I think it may be dehydration. I'm having her drink clear liquids, and I'm taking her to her doctor as well. What do you think?
Hi, It seems that she might behaving some acute GI infection giving this problem. Consult your doctor and after examination he will get clue about type of infection and he will go for treatment accordingly. Continue giving water and electrolytes. Give light diet for 2-3 days. Ok and take care.
