Patient's question:
Dear Dr. Wang,My baby fell off the sofa yesterday around 5:00 PM, and by 9:00 PM, he started vomiting. The vomit became watery with some viscosity, but the doctor who examined him said it was likely due to poor digestion and recommended some digestive medicine. I started giving him the medicine this morning.
Why has he been nauseous, vomiting, having diarrhea, and sleeping all day?
Doctor's answer:
Hello, based on the situation you described, it is recommended that your child drink more warm water.Advice: It is recommended that your child drink more warm water. If your child exhibits white-eye rolling or persistent screaming and crying, it is advisable to take them to the hospital for treatment. Consider that vomiting and diarrhea may indicate acute gastroenteritis, and poor mental state with continuous sleeping may be caused by myocardial damage. You can have your child tested for myocardial enzymes at the hospital.
