Question
A three-year-old boy developed diarrhea symptoms after eating watermelon yesterday morning. Today, he consumed a small amount of watermelon, strawberries, and durian, and by the afternoon, he experienced loose stools and vomiting. He also had vomiting and fever symptoms last night. How should this be handled?
Answer
Based on the description, the boy may have acute gastroenteritis due to overeating fruit and catching a cold. It is recommended to take probiotics daily, reduce the intake of watermelon, and orally consume probiotic preparations and domperidone syrup to alleviate symptoms. Please note to drink plenty of water and keep warm to prevent catching a cold.
