Hi there....
She might be having gastroenteritis, a stomach bug. Other possibility is acidity /gastritis.
I would advise her to take probiotics , oral rehydration solution. Foods like rice gruel, bread toast, apples might help.
Avoid oily,fatty, spicy and acidic foods. Avoid tomato, lemon, cheese , carbonated beverages, etc.
If the problem is due to acidity, then she might need to take antacids. It would be better is she visits a doctor.
Hope this helps..
Regards,
Dr. Divya Kuttikrishnan
