What Is The Reason For Child To Get Abdominal Pain And Passing Green Stools And Cyclical Fevers?
My 3 year old gets cyclical fevers every 3 to 4 weeks. Fever ranges from 100 to 104 and lasts 4 to 5 days. With this he complains of belly aches and passes light green stool. He only wants milk during these episodes and eats very little. My concern is abdominal pain and green stool. Can it be ibuprofen every 6 hrs?

Hi,
Thank you for asking question on health care magic.
Ibuprofen do not serve the purpose.
Your child needs an antidiarrheal like ofloxacin with ornidazole and an anti spasmodic like cyclopam syrup.
Paracetamol 15 mg/kg 3-4 times daily along with tepid sponging will reduce fever.
Hope this answer will serve your purpose
Please feel free to ask any more queries if required
Take care
