Question
After a week of intravenous injections for pneumonia, the diarrhea stopped after the injection was stopped. Yesterday, I seemed to have overdone it again, and there was vomiting and diarrhea. It felt like the milk I ate wasn’t digested and came back up, with a strong acid taste. Was it because the injections were too cold and irritating, or because I overate? What should I do in this situation?
Answer
Has your child’s pneumonia recovered, and do you know what medication was used for the intravenous treatment? Some medications can cause gastrointestinal reactions, but these usually disappear after stopping the medication. Your child’s current symptoms might be due to catching a cold. Don’t rush into medication; abdominal warming can be effective. You can try feeding them fluids; avoid fruits and cold foods. It’s recommended to closely monitor the situation. Abdominal warming is sufficient; don’t worry. Wishing your baby grows up healthy.
