Make sure that he has plenty of water, if this continues for a few more days try a small + i mean small amount of salt in the water or any food he may be trying to keep down, you can also get some treatment for the diarrhoea from the pharmacy. You may try asking what he has eaten.

Have them drink pedialyte to keep hydrated. I wouldn't wait but one more day before taking them to doctor. If it is an infant you should go to the doctor asap.

What treatment for hand foot mouth disease?

HFMD as you probably know is unrelated to the disease of farm animals, and is common in school children.

It is usually a mild disease, is viral, and there is no specific treatment apart from childrens' paracetemol (not aspirin).

Good hygiene is needed around the sick person, with hand-washing and covering up coughs and sneezes.

Exclusion from school may be required until the blisters and rash have cleared.

If at all concerned take the sick person to a doctor.

Will flucloxacillin cause loose bowell movements

Yes it will. Any antibiotic will cause that depending on how much bacteria you have and other foods in your system. Keep in mind your body has a way of regulating itself by removing any foreign matter in it.

Treatment of lyme disease

Treatments and drugs
By Mayo Clinic Staff

Antibiotics are used to treat Lyme disease. In general, recovery will be quicker and more complete the sooner treatment begins.

Antibiotics




  • Oral antibiotics. These are the standard treatment for early-stage Lyme disease. These usually include doxycycline for adults and children older than 8, or amoxicillin or cefuroxime for adults, younger children, and pregnant or breast-feeding women. A 14- to 21-day course of antibiotics is usually recommended, but some studies suggest that courses lasting 10 to 14 days are equally effective.


  • Intravenous antibiotics. If the disease involves the central nervous system, your doctor may recommend treatment with an intravenous antibiotic for 14 to 28 days. This is effective in eliminating infection, although it may take some time to recover from your symptoms. Intravenous antibiotics can cause various side effects, including a lower white blood cell count, mild to severe diarrhea, or colonization or infection with other antibiotic resistant organisms unrelated to Lyme.


After treatment, a small number of people still experience some symptoms, such as muscle aches and fatigue. The cause of these continuing symptoms is unknown, and treating with more antibiotics doesn\'t help. Some experts believe that certain people who get Lyme disease are predisposed to develop an autoimmune response that contributes to their symptoms. More research is needed.

Bismacine


The Food and Drug Administration warns against the use of bismacine, an injectable compound prescribed by some alternative medicine practitioners to treat Lyme disease. Bismacine, also known as chromacine, contains high levels of the metal bismuth. Although bismuth is safely used in some oral medications for stomach ulcers, it\'s not approved for use in injectable form or as a treatment for Lyme disease. Bismacine can cause bismuth poisoning, which may lead to heart and kidney failure.
