Question
What should be done when a child has dry vomiting, fever, and diarrhea?
Answer
When a child exhibits dry vomiting, abdominal pain, and diarrhea, it is often due to gastroenteritis. At this time, symptomatic anti-inflammatory treatment should be provided for the child. The diet should be light, avoiding spicy and irritating foods, and it’s best to offer fluid and easily digestible foods. Additionally, you can give the child stomach-soothing tablets, ensure plenty of water intake, and ideally drink a cup of honey water. Abdominal massage in a clockwise direction should also be performed regularly.
