Question
My child is two years old, and for the past two days, he has been vomiting and having diarrhea, refusing to eat anything. He also keeps sleeping. What should I do?
Answer
Vomiting and diarrhea along with a refusal to eat may be signs of digestive discomfort and weak spleen and stomach in a child, possibly caused by acute gastroenteritis. It is recommended to undergo intravenous treatment and use Montmorillonite powder and probiotics to nourish the gastrointestinal tract. At the same time, precautions should be taken to prevent dehydration, provide the child with small, frequent meals, and keep the abdomen warm.
