How to treat acute diarrhea and vomiting in children? The child has loose stools with a substance resembling spoiled milk, started this afternoon, has vomited only once, and has no fever.

During diarrhea, children often experience abdominal pain, and it’s important to keep their abdomen warm. Ensure the child drinks plenty of water to prevent dehydration. A medication called “Anti-Diarrhea Baby Granules” has been found to be effective; it’s worth a try.
