Depends on how long: most likely caused by a viral illness if symptoms have been there for less than 10-14 days. Keep your child hydrated by offering lots of fluids like water, pedialyte, diluted Gatorade. You can give acetaminophen for fever or discomfort. If symptoms longer than 10-14 days or fever longer than 5 days, see your doctor.
