Question

I played outside for a while during the day and had a small piece of sweet potato for dinner. I started vomiting and had diarrhea when I went to sleep. The next morning, when I went to see the doctor, I was still vomiting and had diarrhea, and I was dehydrated. The doctor prescribed Fenghuo Shenzhou, Montmorillonite Powder, and some other medicine (I’m not sure what it is), but it was very bitter. I only urinated once a day, and the amount was very little; I didn’t dare to give him more to eat. He has been breastfed.

Answer

I’m glad to help clarify this for you. Based on your description, this situation requires attention to possible causes such as indigestion and other reasons related to dietary irregularities. It is also important to be aware of other possible abnormal manifestations such as fever and the child’s crying. In this situation, the first step is to keep calm, take adequate rest, ensure good quality of sleep, avoid eating extremely cold or cool foods, take the prescribed medications as directed, give the child plenty of water, and check the child’s temperature changes promptly. If necessary, seek medical attention from a regular pediatric department in a hospital.
