Question
The child has had diarrhea for three days. After eating a lychee and a small amount of Activia yogurt in the morning, the diarrhea began. Since then, everything the child has eaten has been vomited, except water. There has been no fever for three days. Now the child is not feeling well, and vomiting continues even after taking medication. How should it be handled? Is it a food issue or caused by a virus infection?
Answer
Suspected to be caused by catching a cold or indigestion. It is recommended to use medication under a doctor’s guidance, such as Simethicone, Mammy Love, Children’s Digestive Powder, and Chicken Gizzards Powder. Pay attention to having the child drink plenty of water. For mothers who are breastfeeding, it is important to eat a light diet and avoid cold and irritating foods. When treating pediatric digestive diseases, it is necessary to cooperate with the doctor for gastrointestinal decompression and develop good hygiene habits. Parents should avoid picky eating and ensure a balanced diet for their children.
