Pediatrician,  's  Response
Hello,

So she is having abdominal pain, weakness since a week after episodes of vomiting. Weakness due to dehydration following few episodes of vomiting should not persist for 1 week.

How much she is urinating, normally or has decreased the urination? Passing motion normally or not? You may need to consult your doctor if your child is having decreased urine output, lethargy, and abdominal pain and get some investigations done.

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

Regards,
Dr. Khan Shoeb Mohammad Sher Mohammad
