Question
The baby first complained of stomach pain, followed by diarrhea, and then approximately 30 minutes later, vomited twice. The parent noticed something was off and wants to inquire about the situation. How should it be treated?
Answer
Based on the child’s symptoms, it may be acute enteritis. It is advised for the parent to take the child to the hospital for examination to determine if it is caused by viral enteritis or bacterial infection, and then provide appropriate treatment based on the examination results. If vomiting is severe, intravenous treatment may be necessary to prevent dehydration. In terms of diet, choose easily digestible, soft-textured foods with little residue and no irritants. It is appropriate to consume foods rich in fiber and fruits.
