Patient's question:
This morning after waking up, the baby suddenly vomited while playing. The vomit did not have any obvious clumps, resembling porridge. The baby is usually breastfed, and last night they ate some shrimp. The past two days, the baby has had diarrhea, which has mostly improved by yesterday. This morning, the stool was not well-formed again, and there was still some diarrhea. It has not been treated yet. Do they need medication? How should it be treated?Doctor's answer:
According to your description, the condition mentioned above involves a baby suddenly experiencing vomiting followed by other issues. Considering the symptoms, it may be a case of acute gastroenteritis, mostly caused by exposure to cold or unclean food. It's still recommended to give medication. You can give him Montmorillonite Powder and Sizimo Decoction, combined with dietary adjustments. Reduce his milk intake and cook some millet porridge for him, drinking the liquid part while avoiding the millet grains. During this period, avoid spicy, greasy, extremely cold, or irritating foods.
