What should children with diarrhea avoid eating?

Patient's question:

Doctor, I want to know what children with nausea and vomiting should not eat. My child is 4 years old. Recently, he has been having diarrhea and also experiencing dry vomiting. Almost everything he eats comes back up. The child hasn't eaten much these past few days, and I'm worried he will get hungry. I want to give him small amounts of food, but I don't know what he can eat.

Doctor's answer:

Infants and young children again showing symptoms of nausea and vomiting are generally considered to be related to a recurrence of bacterial infection in the intestines. Oral anti-inflammatory drugs for the intestines can be taken to focus on treatment. Carefully observe for any recurrence of dehydration symptoms. If there is an increase in medication use, dry skin, and sunken eyes, it is generally considered to be highly related to dehydration. In addition to taking intravenous fluid to replenish fluids.
