Brief Answer:
Continue Emeset
Detailed Answer:
Thanks for asking on Health care magic.
The child may have developed an acute episode of gastritis which has led to vomiting. Reset is right to be given, especially before meals. Also give him ORS (Oral rehydration solution) to make up for the lost water and salts. The episodes may continue for a couple of days before resolving. You need not worry.
Regards
