[|Human|] Granddaughter has been vomiting and running high fever since last Friday. Was taken to Dr. this past Mon., he said stomach virus, be ok in a day or so. but she still is not ok. I told daughter I think more is going on and she should go to dr. again. What do you think? maybe bacterial infection instead of regular stomach virus?
[|AI|]  Hi, It might be an abdominal infection, caused by a bacterium or a virus. The viral infection is commoner in the pediatric age group and takes longer to subside. Bacterial infection subsides, once the antibiotics start to act. Give her oral antipyretic paracetamol for fever and do cold sponging. Give a soft diet. Please visit the pediatrician immediately if the fever goes over 101 degrees in spite of all efforts (risk of seizures), if oral intake is severely hampered, there are intractable vomiting s or signs of deny Chat Doctor.  Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
