What causes continuous diarrhea and vomiting in children?
Patient: Hi, may I answer your health queries right now ? Please type your que my 3 year ols daughter started having diareah and vomiting a week ago. she had the vomiting for 2 days and still had water stools. she went 2 days without vomiting then started again and had been for the past 3 days. im really concerned about dehydration, maybe she has salminella or maybe she swallowed a small magnet. please help! Doctor: Hi, thank you for the question. your child is suffering from gastroenteritis. we can treat it with probiotics, ORS , zinc, ondansetron for vomiting and an antibiotic like cefixime if indicated. you can avoid dehydration by giving your child ORS, coconut water in small sips.
