My 6-year-old child had a fever yesterday and has had loose motions 3 times this morning. What should I do?
A fever followed by loose motions in a child is usually due to a viral stomach infection. Give plenty of fluids or oral rehydration, offer light foods like rice, banana, or curd, and ensure good rest to support recovery. Keep hygiene clean and watch for signs such as weakness, dryness, or reduced urine output. A doctor may advise appropriate treatment if needed, so consult if symptoms persist or worsen.
