What should I do about children's diarrhea and vomiting?

Patient's question:

Children and adults go picnicking on weekends. Many parents bring different homemade foods to the picnic, and everyone shares them together. The children play happily on the grass. They probably didn't wash their faces when eating, so they got sick when they went home. What should I do about infant diarrhea and vomiting?

Doctor's answer:

When the child experiences diarrhea and vomiting again, it is considered that it may be caused by eating something bad. In this situation, it is temporarily not advisable to give the child any food or medication. Instead, pediatric acupuncture can be used to regulate the child's digestive function. Once the vomiting symptoms subside, appropriate digestive aid medications and anti-diarrheal medications can be given to treat the condition. At the same time, it is important to monitor the child's fluid intake.
