Decline In Appetite And Diarrhoea. Vomited Undigested Food. What Could This Be?

My child first started a decline in appetite bout a week as a half ago. Then she had 2 nights where she vomited what appeared to be undigested food. She has had diarrhea for about a week now either yellow or bright green. Acts like she feels ok other than decline in appetite and diarrhea a few times a day. What could this be.

Pediatrician,  's  Response
Hi,

Thank you for your query.

Your daughter is suffering from gastroenteritis as she has been having vomiting and diarrhoea. The diarrhoea is associated with the reduced feeding by the child. I suggest that you get her examined by a doctor and get the stool examined. Give her plenty of oral fluids so that she does not get dehydrated.

As the age and weight of your daughter has not been mentioned medicine cannot be suggested.

I hope I have answered your query to your satisfaction.

Wishing your daughter all the best.

Regards,

RKK
