My son is 2 years and 3 months old, he was having high fever since last 3 days so I was giving him Dolo. Now today he did not have fever but pooped 4 times with stomach cramps twice and his last 3 poops had a large amount of mucus and now he is again down with fever. What can be the reason. I am going to visit the doctor tomorrow morning.
