What Causes Sore Stomach, Vomit, Red Bumps On Stomach In A Child?
Two nights ago, my 5 year old son kept complaining of a sore stomach and eventually he vomitted 2 times that night. Since then, he has seemed to be feeling better but this evening I noticed a bunch of red bumps all over his stomach, back, neck and cheeks. What is this?
Hi. Thanks for your query. I understand your concern. Your child had an episode of gastroenteritis which is mostly viral in nature and settles in few days . Since he is active I do not suggest giving antibiotic. If there is no vomiting no need of ondem as well.continue with nutrolin b. Give plenty of fluids. Give lemonade,curd,rice porridge,banana. Repeated hand washing should be encouraged and NO to all junk food items. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can help further. Wishing your child good health. God bless.
