Hi,

High grade fever, loose stools and vomiting indicates acute gastroenteritis or food poisoning. This can be treated with antibiotics, probiotics, zinc and other supportive measures.

He might be already receiving these. Fever and vomiting usually subsides in 2-3 days, but it may take few more days for stool to get normalised. If is active, playful and taking feeds, we need not worry. He will be fine in a couple of days.

Give him frequent sips of fluids like ORS to avoid dehydration and avoid juices or sugary items.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
