Question

I'm experiencing some stomach issues and was wondering what exactly doxycycline and lactic acid bacillus capsules do. Could they help with an infection in my stomach? I'm just trying to understand how these work together.

Immediate Care* 1. *Monitor temperature*: Keep track of your child's fever. 2. *Fluids*: Offer plenty of fluids, like breast milk, formula, or an oral rehydration solution (e.g., Pedialyte). 3. *Pain relief*: For headache and fever, consult your pediatrician about administering acetaminophen (e.g., Tylenol) in the correct dosage. *When to Seek Medical Attention* 1. *Fever*: If the fever exceeds 102F or lasts more than 2 days. 2. *Headache*: If the headache worsens, is severe, or accompanied by vomiting, confusion, or lethargy. 3. *Other symptoms*: If your child experiences difficulty breathing, severe abdominal pain, or shows signs of dehydration (e.g., fewer wet diapers, dry mouth).
