Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern. As per your query your daughter have symptoms of vomiting, diarrhea and headache which is due to food poisoning and acute gastroenteritis which is a viral infection. It could be due to disturbed metabolism of body leading to electrolyte imbalance. Need not to worry. I would suggest you to take acetaminophen and antiemetic medication. Visit general physician once and get it examined. You should get blood tests done to find out underlying cause of condition and start treatment accordingly. Your symptoms will resolve in 3-5 days. You should take proper rest. You should take plenty of fluids to re-hydrate. Avoid intake of any outside food. Take diet rich in multivitamins and avoid any oily sharp and fast food.

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.

Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
