Question

How should a child be treated if they experience vomiting and diarrhea after eating fatty meat?

Answer

Due to the lack of detailed medical history, it is recommended to first conduct a stool test to determine the cause. If there are pus cells in the stool, it may indicate a bacterial infection, and antibiotic treatment should be administered while observing for signs of dehydration, with timely fluid replacement and hydration. If neutral fat is found in the stool, it may indicate an absorption issue, and medication to aid absorption should be used. If the stool is normal, a virology test should be conducted, particularly for rotavirus detection. After confirmation, appropriate antiviral treatment should be initiated. Additionally, attention should be paid to dietary hygiene, ensure the child drinks plenty of water, and consider using oral rehydration salts.
