Question
A two-year-old child has been experiencing continuous diarrhea for three days, with watery stools, accompanied by symptoms such as refusal to eat, vomiting, and slight fever. Although the child has been to the doctor and received intravenous fluid and medication treatment, the child is unable to take the medication, and even if they manage to eat it, they will vomit it all out. The parents are seeking expert guidance and assistance.
Answer
When a child experiences diarrhea and vomiting, it is important to consider whether it is caused by gastroenteritis. Gastroenteritis often comes with nausea, vomiting, lack of energy, and even fever, which may be due to the intake of contaminated food or viral infection causing gastrointestinal discomfort. If the child can take medication, you can try giving them oral Huoxiang Zhengqi Liquid to alleviate the symptoms of gastroenteritis. If the child is unable to take medication and vomiting is severe, intestinal retention enema can be used to administer medication through the anus into the intestines to achieve a therapeutic effect.
