Just a quick advice.

Febrile fit:

-won't damage brain
-Age 6months to 5 years. (unlikely to persist beyond 6 years of age)
-control fever properly with Paracetamol and Tepid sponging with warm water. NOT ICE Water plzzzz. Based on evaporation theory.

-Turn child on side to prevent aspiration of fluids into lungs.
-Dont put anything in mouth. Do more harm than good


Diarrhoea/Fever

- Drink more water preferably not drinks with too much sugar ( mineral water ) NOT 100plus. ORS aka Oral Rehydration Salt is awesome
- Reduce or replace cow's milk formula. Breast milk cannot stop
- REST. No shopping till late night with child.
- Again plz don't put ice or cold water on ur child. WARM Towel enough. We are not putting off a fire here.


Hope ur child has recovered.
God bless
