Patient's question:
At 4:00 a.m., I felt nauseous and was dry heaving, with intermittent abdominal pain and nausea/vomiting. How is acute gastroenteritis treated?Doctor's answer:
Acute gastroenteritis requires hydration. You can use saline solution, sugar water, or add some antibiotics for treatment. If the symptoms are not too severe, it is best to take antibiotics orally for treatment. In fact, having gastroenteritis is not scary at all. Patients should believe that they can overcome the illness. As long as timely treatment is provided in the early stages, the chances of alleviating the condition and recovering are very high. Pay attention to a light diet in daily life.
