Pediatrician 's  Response
Diarrhea and vomiting suggest your son is probably suffering from gastroenteritis.
Other causes of such complaints are appendicitis, food poisoning, food allergies etc
Gastroenteritis may be caused due to bacterial, viral or protozoal infection, but viral infections are more common.
Treatment for this condition antiemetic like ondansetaron for vomiting, ORS solution to prevent dehydration, or some antibiotic if bacterial infections are suspected.

For further queries regarding this disease or its medications you may take my appointment at Healthcare Magic.
