Patient's question:
On January 14th evening, I had stomach pain. On January 15th, I had stomach pain and diarrhea, and went to see a doctor. The doctor said it was acute gastroenteritis, the pain was above the stomach. How should I adjust my diet for acute gastroenteritis?Doctor's answer:
Nausea and vomiting, dry heaving, the most common cause is acute gastroenteritis. After treatment, the nausea and vomiting have stopped. There is a post-illness recovery process, so I suggest you first eat plenty of easily digestible foods, such as thick porridge, and drink a little juice appropriately. Digest some electrolytes like potassium, sodium ions, etc. Electrolyte imbalance can lead to symptoms like general fatigue. If the symptoms do not improve, it is important to return to the hospital for follow-up treatment. In addition to standard treatment for gastroenteritis, patients also need to pay attention to dietary aspects, such as proper eating habits and maintaining a positive mood. At the same time, patients should also pay attention to choosing a reputable hospital for diagnosis to ensure good treatment outcomes.
