What should I do if I have a fever after having diarrhea?

Patient's question:

I've had diarrhea for three days. The first two days I had a fever, but it's gone today. The doctor prescribed Montmorillonite Powder and Tannic Acid Protein Yeast Powder, Xiao Chaihu Granules, and Wushi Tea Granules. I vomited after taking them, so I didn't take any today. I've been feeling extremely weak all day and don't want to eat anything. I had an egg yolk and some rice water early in the morning and drank very little. An hour ago, I drank over 100 milliliters of milk, and I've had two bowel movements just now. I've had three bowel movements all day. Should I go to the hospital for an IV? I'm very worried about severe dehydration and don't know what else I can eat.

Doctor's answer:

According to your description, your baby is most likely experiencing irregular bowel movements due to indigestion. I suggest paying more attention to your baby's diet. If you are breastfeeding, make sure the lactating mother follows a light diet, avoiding greasy and leftover foods, and give your baby more warm water! The above advice is for the question "Diarrhea for three days, fever for the first two days." I hope it helps you. Wishing the little one a speedy recovery, a healthy body, and a wonderful life.
