Question
My child first had dry vomiting, then dry vomiting again. They didn’t have a bowel movement that day and had two fevers that night. They had a bowel movement on the third day, but it was very loose. They started to have a fever again in the afternoon? Could it be viral gastroenteritis? What kind of anti-inflammatory or antiviral medication should I give them?
Answer
Based on the current description, it is not clear whether the child’s condition is caused by viral gastroenteritis. It is recommended to have the child undergo a hospital check-up for blood tests, CRP, and stool tests to clearly and differentiate the diagnosis. It is not possible to make a specific diagnosis or provide treatment guidance without these tests. It is suggested that you take your child to the pediatric department of the hospital for a follow-up consultation, and the doctor will guide further treatment after reviewing the results of these tests.
