Fever and diarrhea, how to handle it

Patient's question:

Starting from yesterday afternoon, I had a fever until 1 a.m. when it rose to high fever of 39 degrees Celsius. My whole body was burning. Today, I went to the hospital for blood tests and IV fluids, and the fever has subsided. Now it's rising again to 38 degrees Celsius, and my limbs are cold. What should I do?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, if a child has diarrhea, the first consideration should be indigestion, intestinal inflammation, or exposure to cold. The first step is to diagnose the cause. If the child only has simple diarrhea and is in good spirits, you can give them some Lactobacillus casei or a probiotic preparation, or take Intestinal Growth, and may also add a course of cephalosporin antibiotics. Once the diarrhea becomes severe and medication is ineffective, it is necessary to promptly administer intravenous treatment.
