Question
My baby has started vomiting and after the doctor’s examination, the vomiting symptoms have improved, but there has been a persistent low fever for four or five days, which has not been alleviated even after receiving injections and taking fever-reducing medication. Today, the baby vomited again. What should I do?
Answer
Firstly, a detailed diagnosis is necessary to determine the cause. Children’s dry vomiting is usually a symptom of gastric spasm, and domperidone can be used to relieve the spasm. For the persistent low fever, it is recommended to use ibuprofen suspension to reduce the fever. Additionally, considering it may be a gastrointestinal flu, huang xiang zheng qi liquid can be taken for treatment. Please note that these suggestions should be carried out under the guidance of a doctor, and the specific treatment plan should be determined based on clinical diagnosis.
