  1. Give him  a bath to cool him down then feed him bananas,peanut butter, breads, cheese, and give him pedialyte.


  2. You should really get a thermometer so that you can make sure that it's not to high. If it gets to high then you need to take him to the hospital. Make sure you give him plenty of pedialite and water. Also give him tylenol.

  3. The juice could cause more loose stools.  You need to let him  eat things that will slow down his digestive tract.  Like plain toast and plain boiled rice.  Think very bland foods.  

    "A full appetite is often the last behavior to return after an illness, and children should be allowed to take their time returning to normal eating habits. There is no specific diet that is recommended for diarrhea, but children usually tolerate bland foods better. Bulking agents, like starches, fresh fruits, and vegetables help create more solid stool. Fruit juices can loosen stool. "
