My 18 month old son has been suffering from trapped wind/upset tummy for around 4 days. He has been off his off but is drinking fluids. This evening he woke and vomited twice, his stomach is gurgling a lot and seem uncomfortable. The past few days he has had yellow/cream stools which turned to diarrhoea. Today he has been passing a lot of wind accompanied by light diarrhoea. Around 5 weeks ago he suffered for gastroenteritis for around 10 days, since then he has been back to his normal self, eating and drinking normally. Temperature is fine although feels clammy to the touch during the night. Any advice would be much appreciated
HI.this seems like a viral diarrhea which is starting in your son. It will initially start with vomiting and then will gradually progress on to diarrhea. You need not worry unless he is exhausted/ not passing urine/ there is blood in the motion/ abdominal distension/ listless. I suggest you give him plenty of oral fluids, avoid aerated Chat Doctor.  He will get better soon. If he develops any of the danger signs mentioned above, kindly consult your pediatrician. Regards -
