Question
What are the common symptoms of children’s gastrointestinal flu? How should parents handle it?
Answer
Gastrointestinal flu is primarily caused by viral infection and usually accompanied by digestive system symptoms such as vomiting, diarrhea, and abdominal pain. Treatment typically involves a combination of antiviral, antiallergic, and antipyretic analgesics. In severe cases, it may also require the addition of cooling and detoxifying traditional Chinese medicine and antibacterial anti-inflammatory drugs. Of course, all treatment plans should be determined by a doctor based on the child’s specific condition.
