Suggest Remedy For Persistent Vomiting

Hi I am 33 year old girl, I have just had the vomiting virus Saturday which lasted about 12 hours of vomiting. My son caught it and last threw up this morning. I cleaned his sick up. I am wanting to know if I can catch it back off cleaning his sick as I am scared to get it again as mine was so bad . Thanks

Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern. As per your query your child have symptoms of persistent vomiting which seems to be due to food poisoning which caused electrolyte imbalance in body leading to acute gastritis. Sometimes it is due to underlying systemic pathology. Need not to worry. I would suggest you to start treatment with combination of fluoroquinolones and ornidazole. You can take banana on daily basis and light food. You should avoid taking dairy products in excess. Avoid hot, sharp and spicy food. Visit gastroenterologist once and get it examined and start treatment after complete examination. Drink plenty of fluids to rehydrate yourself. You should get intravenous fluid administration as well.

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.

Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
