Should I Be Considered About My Child Suffering From An Upset Stomach, Vomiting And Rashes On Lips?
Our son has had an upset stomach since Saturday. He vomited all day Saturday, felt better on Sunday (had an upset stomach on and off), upset stomach on Monday and vomited again Monday night. He was better today, but throughout the day would complain of an upset stomach again. He also has some kind of rash on his lips. It looks like they are severely chapped, but he has not been licking them or been outside in the cold. Just wondering if this is something we should have checked out.

hello,
welcome to health care magic
according to your query, your child may be having stomach infection so you can give him antibiotic (Norflox syrup) twice a day and for excessive vomiting emset syrup is preferred for kids along with multi vitamin.
if you have not gone through deworming for long then, give him 10ml albenzadole once a day for single day after your child got relief from above mention symptoms.
regarding rash on his lip: must be due to excessive vomiting, acids come direct in contact with lips especially lowerlips so, that would have cause rash on lips.
please do not scratch or bite on lips which will increase the rash, apply vaselin or desi ghee on it.
hope it will help you
thank you
