Hi,I am Dr. Santosh Kondekar (Pediatrician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Hi, My daughter is 1 year 2 months old. From last 2 days she is vomiting 1 time or two time and was having loose motion 3 times a day. Today in 6 hour she had loose motion 3 times but no vomiting.. She takes milk only.no solid food. She used to take 1500 ml milk daily. Now she is taking only 800ml milk. She has dehaydration symptoms(if you press hard on her feet and then leave then feet is not coming to it soriginal color fast). Can i use Jaiphal to treat this. I cannot stop her milk because she take only milk..
Hi...Thank you for consulting in Health Care magic. It seems your kid is having viral diarrhoea. Once it starts it will take 5-7 days to completely get better. Unless the kid's having low urine output or very dull or excessively sleepy or blood in motion or green bilious vomiting...you need not worry. There is no need to use antibiotics unless there is blood in the motion. Antibiotics might worsen if unnecessarily used causing antibiotic associated diarrhoea. I suggest you use zinc supplements (Z&D drops 1ml once daily for 14 days) & ORS (Each small packet mixed in 200ml of potable water and keep giving sip by sip) as hydration is very important and crucial part of treatment. Regards - Dr. Sumanth
