best medicine for child loose motion - #13230
I am kinda freaking out here. My 6-year-old son has had loose motion for the past two days. At first it seemed like maybe just a little stomach bug, but now he's going multiple times a day and it's super watery. He says his tummy hurts and honestly, I'm worried. We tried giving him plenty of fluids, but he just looks more tired. The doctor said to keep an eye on him and only if it gets worse, but like... what is the best medicine for child loose motion? I really wanna help him feel better but I'm not sure what's safe or effective. Is it okay to use over-the-counter stuff for this, or should I stick to home remedies? I’ve heard mixed things about electrolytes too, like do they help or just make things worse? Oh and he’s had a little fever too, like 100 degrees. Should that change what the best medicine for child loose motion would be? It’s stressing me out, I hate seeing him like this, and I really wanna do something that will actually work. Any advice would be appreciated!
