Suggest Treatment For Stomach Ache And Vomiting In Child
My daughter is four years old. She hasn t been sick in her life. In the last 4 weeks she has been sick twice. She vomits and has a bad stomach ache. The only thing that s different is she goes to my sisters while I work. And she is around dogs now. Could is be an allergy? Or something else?

Hi,
It could be viral or bacterial stomach infection (Gastroentritis).
It it was allergy , she would have got these symptoms everytime she went to your sister's house.
For gastroentritis give her plenty of water and in food rice porridge will be helpfull.
For vomiting and stomach ache you may give her syp.ondesteron and syp.cyclopam as per need.
If she gets fever and worsening of the symptoms pls get her checked by doctor ,as she may need antibiotic course after discussing with doctor.

Dr.Maheshwari
