What causes fever and stomach pain in a child?
Patient: my son has temperature of 38.4 degrees,woke late this morning complaining of stomach pain and discovered he had a fever.I gave him homeopathic remedy belladonna and hour later gave him 7.5mls of calpol.How long should it take for his temp to come down?Thanks Doctor: HIThank for asking to HCMI really appreciate your concern for your son Acetaminophen is the right drug (calpol) for fever and other system of medicine wont work here and not advisable to treat simultaneously with both the system of medicine, underlying cause of fever need to be found out, usually antipyretic takes half an hour to bring down the temperature if given with right calculated dose, take care and have a nice day.
