Question
What should I do if my child is completely exhausted after three days of diarrhea?
Answer
After three days of diarrhea and dry vomiting, a child’s lethargy may be due to dehydration or accompanying electrolyte disturbances. First, ensure that the child has been adequately hydrated and consider conducting an electrolyte test, such as checking for low potassium levels. Next, actively treat the underlying cause of nausea and vomiting, such as indigestion or intestinal infection, and use probiotic preparations.
