Question
I ate a lychee and had two mouthfuls of Anmoshi yogurt this morning. By the afternoon, I started having diarrhea, and after eating anything else, I would throw up about an hour later. Drinking water doesn’t cause vomiting. There has been no fever, and it’s been going on for three days now. The child is feeling unwell, and medication has been taken but it still causes vomiting. I don’t know what to do, and I suspect it might be a food issue or a viral infection.
Answer
The possible causes could be catching a cold or indigestion. It is recommended to take medication under a doctor’s guidance. Medications like Simethicone, Mamy Love, Children’s Digestive Health Powder, and Chicken Gizzard Powder can be taken. Pay attention to make sure the child drinks plenty of water. If breastfeeding, the mother’s diet should be light and avoid cold and irritating foods. For pediatric digestive diseases, once diagnosed, treatment should be immediate, along with gastrointestinal decompression and the development of good hygiene habits. Parents should avoid their children from being picky eaters and arrange their diet properly.
