Patient's question:
Main symptoms: At the beginning of the illness, there may be dry vomiting, often occurring before nausea and vomiting. Frequent bowel movements, large volume, high moisture content, yellow watery stools...Onset time: November 11
Laboratory test results:
Treatment history and effectiveness: Took medicine for 4 days, now experiencing nausea and vomiting 4-5 times a day. The child is a 7-month-old boy. Unsure of the severity, the doctor does not support medication. What should be done?
Doctor's answer:
Baby has diarrhea. Oral Smecta and probiotics can be taken, and continue to monitor. If there is no improvement, a stool test can be done to determine if there is a bacterial or viral infection. Bacterial infection requires oral antibiotics. Viral infection does not require oral antibiotics, and the course of viral infection is approximately 1 week. If the baby is not in good spirits or shows signs of dehydration, such as very little urine, it is necessary to go to the hospital for treatment.
