What should I do if my baby has gastroenteritis and vomiting?

Patient's question:

My son is two years old this year. Recently, I don't know what he ate, but he has been constantly nausea and vomiting, and also nausea and dry heaving. I am very worried because it's the first time I've encountered this situation. I took him to the hospital for a thorough examination and found that my two-year-old baby has gastroenteritis. What should I do?

Doctor's answer:

When a child experiences recurrent gastrointestinal inflammation, it is necessary to use medication promptly for anti-inflammatory treatment, while also using nutritional supplements to enhance absorption. The recurrence of gastroenteritis in children may be related to improper diet, and it could also be caused by transmission issues due to poor hygiene. It is recommended to take medication in a timely manner, such as oral medication. Additionally, it is important to pay attention to the rationality of the child's diet, and try to use light foods for the next few days.
