I received a week of intravenous drip for pneumonia, and after that, I had diarrhea and vomited with a strong sour smell.

Patient's question:

I received a week of intravenous drip for pneumonia, which caused diarrhea. After stopping the drip, the diarrhea improved. Yesterday, I might have overeaten and experienced vomiting and diarrhea, as if the milk I drank wasn't digested and was vomited out. The sour smell was very strong, and I don't know if it was due to the drip being too cold and irritating or because I overate. What should I do in this situation?

Doctor's answer:

Is your child's pneumonia better now? What medication was used for the IV? Some medications can cause gastrointestinal reactions, but they will disappear after stopping the medication. Your child's current symptoms might be due to catching a cold. Don't rush to use medication. Keeping the abdomen warm is quite effective. You can have your child eat liquid food, but avoid fruits and cold foods. It is recommended to closely and carefully observe. Keeping the abdomen warm is sufficient. Don't worry. Wishing your baby a healthy growth.
