Hi Dear,
Welcome to HCM.
Understanding your concern. As per your query your child have symptoms of indigestion which is because she is suffering from viral infection which is leading to imbalance in body fluids. It could be due to abnormal abdominal movements. Need not to worry. I would suggest you to visit pediatrician once and get complete examination done. You should go for blood and sputum tests. Avoid taking large meals at a time and take small and frequent meals. If fever increases do tepid sponging as well with cold water. She should take multivitamin tablets. You should give antipyretics to her for fever relief such as calpol,paracetamol or adol suppositories acetaminophen.
Hope your concern has been resolved.
Get Well Soon.
Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
