Patient's question:
The baby is 27 months old and has been vomiting, having diarrhea, and fever. After a thorough examination at the hospital, it was found to be rotavirus gastroenteritis. Today is the fifth day, and the fever has subsided, as well as the vomiting. However, the baby still has one bowel movement a day, but the stool is still very liquid, like egg drop soup. The baby eats very little, only drinks some milk and eats a few spoonfuls of porridge. The baby keeps wanting to take a nap but is in a poor state. Should the baby go back to the hospital for another check-up? Could you help me take a look?Doctor's answer:
According to your description, the child is currently in the recovery period, just with poor appetite, and will gradually return to normal. It is recommended to eat easily digestible foods, avoid extremely cold foods, drink more water, and consider giving the child probiotics for a few days, which will gradually improve. The above suggestions are for the question "What should I do if my 27-month-old child is vomiting, having diarrhea, and has a fever?" It is hoped that this will be helpful to you. Wishing the patient a speedy recovery!
