Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern. As per your query your baby have symptoms of persistent fever and loose stools which is due to viral infection and it could be due to acute gastroenteritis.

Need not to worry. I would suggest you to visit pediatrician first once and get it examined and start treatment after proper diagnosis.You can give Meftal P to child for fever every 4 hourly. Give soft foods to child to avoid irritation. Give full rest to your child. Drink lukewarm water. Give plenty of fluids to child. Get blood test done again to detect level of infection. if symptoms keeps on persisting. Avoid taking outside food.

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.

Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
