Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern. As per your query your child have symptoms of loose stools and vomiting. Well the symptoms you mention in query can occur due to many reasons like infection of the gut , food poisoning, viral infection, gastroenteritis, inflammation of the gut (colitis), food intolerance and various rare disorders of the gut. Need not to worry. You should give child proper rest and avoid giving any outside food. Give child plenty of water. I would suggest you to consult pediatrician for proper examination. Doctor may prescribe loperamide , laxative , omeprazole and antacids . For now give your child fruits like banana and lot of fluid.

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.

Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
