What is the treatment for gastroenteritis in children?

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I can understand your concern.

I suggest you follow the below-mentioned instructions for managing gastroenteritis in children.

1. Encourage your child to drink small, frequent sips of an oral rehydration solution (ORS) or clear fluids like water, diluted fruit juices, or clear broths to prevent dehydration.
2. Avoid sugary drinks, and stay away from caffeinated beverages, as they can worsen diarrhea.
3. Gradually introduce bland, easy-to-digest foods like bananas, rice, applesauce, and toast (BRAT diet). These can help provide some nutrients without overloading the digestive system.
4. Avoid fatty and spicy foods, and stay clear of foods that may irritate the stomach, such as greasy or spicy dishes.
5. Keep an eye on your child's symptoms and seek medical advice if they worsen or persist.
6. Ensure your child gets plenty of rest to aid in the recovery process.

I hope this information will help you.

Thank you.
