Yesterday my son showed fever and I gave him p120 5 ml at around 1130 in the morning. By 2 pm he seemed ok. Suddenly by 3 pm he was sleeping along my side and started to jerk his arms and legs and I tried waking him up. He was feeling very drowsy. Rushed him to er. They gave him suppository. Doc advised frisium 1/2 tab. Reached home by 4 pm. Again around 5 while holding him I was walking he again jerked his legs. Gave him frisium 5 mg and after a while he was ok. Gave him one idli to eat and from then on he was kind of ok. Later on he complained of stomach pain and passed loose stools. Since then every time he passes loose motion he complains of stomach pain. My questions 1) does severe stomach upset cause fever 2) my older son at his 1.5 years age got febrile seizure. So is it possible even my younger one has the tendency? Both 3) although his eyes did not role up. He did show jerky movements and went drowsy and I had to pat him hard to not sleep. 4) pls advice on how to take care further.

Hello Geetha... Fever is not a disease. it is our body's immune reponse to any upset or infection. So fever can come with anything.. Treat the cause.. yes the jerking leg can be partial seizures... Take proper stool examination... it can be worm infestation also. You can consult me at lybrate...
