Question
What’s causing my 18-month-old child’s diarrhea and vomiting when eating?
Answer
Based on your description, I analyze that the baby might be suffering from acute enteritis with dyspepsia, often related to catching a cold, overeating, and other factors. It is recommended that repeated episodes of diarrhea may lead to dehydration, so intravenous medication is necessary in such cases. This situation requires fluid replacement according to the degree of dehydration for pediatric diarrhea, appropriately taking oral lomotil to stop diarrhea, and at the same time, checking electrolytes and ensuring adequate electrolyte replenishment. I hope my answer is helpful to you, and wish you a speedy recovery.
