Patient's question:
Since the day before yesterday, it has been constantly loose stools; for an entire afternoon, it was up to four or five times; and even after taking a nap in the evening, it continued; what's even more frustrating is that it also came with high fever; nausea was also severe.Previous Treatment and Effects:
At People's Hospital, I had an IV drip for a whole day, but it didn’t improve. Later, I visited a local hospital and had two more treatments, but at that time, there was no high fever. However, after a whole night, the fever returned, and the child had vomiting and diarrhea—so worried!
What Kind of Help Is Needed:
I hope all the doctors can give some advice. I don’t know what to do.
Doctor's answer:
It could be infantile diarrhea. If the stool is like egg drop soup, it might be rotavirus gastroenteritis. This type of gastroenteritis is characterized by vomiting before diarrhea, fever, and it generally takes about 7-10 days to recover on its own. If there are signs of dehydration, it's still necessary to go to the hospital for fluid replacement, otherwise it could lead to electrolyte imbalance.Advice: I recommend that you take your child to the children's hospital for a check-up as soon as possible. This condition cannot be delayed.
The above advice is for the question "Child vomiting and diarrhea with high fever." I hope it helps you. Wishing you good health!
