Pediatrician 's  Response
Hi

The symptoms are suggestive of a possible urinary tract infection. I would recommend you to get his urine routine and leucocyte esterase test done. If positive then a course of antibiotics such as Cefixime will be of use. Ensure plenty of oral fluids and good local hygiene.
