Question

My baby is 12 months old! I found hand, foot, and mouth disease four days ago. He was discharged at 11:30 a.m. today and has vomited three times until 9:30 p.m.! He ate a little sweet potato on the way home from the hospital and only drank breast milk and rice porridge after we got home! He’s still vomiting! However, he is in good spirits and can play, but he vomits after eating. What could be the cause?

Answer

You need to take your child to the pediatric department of the hospital as soon as possible to perform relevant checks and diagnose the cause. After diagnosis, actively cooperate with the doctor’s treatment and medication under the doctor’s guidance. You should also eat more foods that are beneficial to absorption. After viral infection, other symptoms may also occur, such as the vomiting your child is experiencing. I recommend giving him plenty of water to treat his hand, foot, and mouth disease.
