What Causes Vomiting And Diarrhea In A Child?

My 4 year old had two episodes if vomiting ( just spits) and slight diarrhoea yesterday, she slept very badly last night, she ate breakfast this morn but complained of being very cold even though it is extremely humid. Do I need to bring her to GP or is it part of stomach virus? Thanks

Hello,

The symptoms of your child seem to be related to a gastrointestinal infection.

I suggest to give him daily probiotics.

I recommend giving Pedialyte to prevent dehydration.

I also recommend to give him Tylenol for the fever and Imodium for diarrhea.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Dorina Gurabardhi, General & Family Physician
