Pediatrician 's  Response
This is probably food poisoning. If there is no fever this may not be serious. Yiu have given emeset and you vomiting is now controlled. Loose motions if they do not have blood will resolve by time. Just keep him hydrated by giving ORS home fluids coconut water plain water soups.
You may use curd,banana,rice,potato etc.
Keep a watch on his urine output.
you should also give zinc 20 mg per day for 14 days.
