What Is The Treatment For High Fever And Diarrhea In A Child?
My son is 16 months old and has had a fever ranging between 101 and 103 for the past 48 hours. He isn t eating as much as normal but still eating a little an drinking fluids. He has been really cranky which is completely unlike him he is the most laid back child I have ever seen. In addition he had pale yellow diarrhea. I m not sure if this is just a virus or of I should be more concerned especially with the color of his bowel movements?
