Pain under the right ribs with fever that does not behave like a simple viral illness.
An infection elsewhere, or amoeba, can seed the liver.
A tender, large liver and a child who does not want to bounce.
Medicine, drainage if needed, and a review scan — not guesswork antibiotics only.
Counts, liver tests and a careful tummy exam come first.
Imaging confirms size and whether drainage will help.
Fever should trend down. We do not stop medicine just because day three felt better.
Safe water and handwash reduce amoebic disease in the household.
We take a full history — onset, feeding, fever, sleep, school and any earlier reports.
Growth, chest, tummy, skin and development are checked. Tests are advised only if they change care.
A clear home plan is given, with a review so we know the child is settling.
Urgent review for high fever with right-upper pain, breathing pain, or a child who looks shocked.
