The 7-year-old girl ate a lot of snacks after lunch yesterday, including 4 jelly candies, and then played outside for half the day. By 5:30 in the afternoon, she said her stomach felt uncomfortable and threw up everything she ate. She was given an intestinal regulator, and by 9:00 at night, she was given a bowl of white porridge. She threw up again in the middle of the night. When she woke up in the morning, she still had a low fever of 37.8°C. She was given Huoxiang Zhengqi pills and fever-reducing medicine, but she threw up again shortly after. What could have caused this, and what medicine should she take?Doctor's answer:
The baby has a gastrointestinal type of cold, which is often caused by catching a cold, consuming extremely cold and hard stools, unclean diet, or indigestion. The clinical manifestations include fever, nausea, dry vomiting, and vomiting. I suggest giving the baby more warm water to drink, eating light and easily digestible foods, avoiding extremely cold and hard or spicy and irritating foods, eating small meals frequently, preventing overeating, and paying attention to warmth to avoid catching a cold, especially in the stomach and abdomen. I hope my explanation helps you.
