Patient's question:
My child was just discharged from the hospital after pneumonia, but now at home, they have diarrhea and vomiting again. Is this symptom related to the stomach/intestines or is it connected to the pneumonia? Need to solve this equation? Urgent, urgent, urgent.Doctor's answer:
Your description is quite clear. I'd like to ask if your child had pneumonia and was hospitalized? Did they use antibiotics during the hospital stay? Generally, antibiotics are used, and then you should check if the antibiotics caused any gastrointestinal reactions. Well, to be precise, if a child has pneumonia, they might experience gastrointestinal symptoms similar to a common cold, but in your case, it seems more like gastrointestinal reactions, which don't resemble typical pneumonia. I think what you're experiencing should be related to the antibiotics.
