Patient's Query
Hello doctor,
I have been suffering from fever and loose motion for the past one day. I have taken Paracetamol, and the fever has gone, but today again, there is a fever. I checked the temperature was 101.5 yesterday evening. Please suggest what to do. Today only two times I have gone, but in the evening, my fever started at 100 temperature.
Hello,
Welcome to icliniq.com.
Fever associated with loose motion could be due to a bowel infection. You need a complete physical examination as the fever has been persisting. So, should see your family doctor.
For the loose stool, I suggest:
1) Oral rehydration salts (ORS) to replace lost fluids and electrolytes.
2) Tasectan (Gelatin Tannate and cornstarch) or Pepto-Bismol (Bismuth subsalicylate).
3) Probiotics to stabilize the intestinal flora.
Regards.
