Brief Answer:
Possible infection of gut

Detailed Answer:

Hello,

As per your description, the possibility of a gastrointestinal tract infection is high in your child. Medications in children are prescribed according to the bodyweight only. I generally prescribe oral medications of Lansaprazole and Ondansetron to my patients with such symptoms.

Please check with your physician if he shares my view and if can prescribe these medications to improve his symptoms.

Post your further questions if any.
Thank you
