What should I do if my child is vomiting, having diarrhea and having a fever?

In daily life, we often encounter people with fever and colds. These are caused by weather or physical reasons. Sometimes a person will vomit, have diarrhea and have a fever. Everyone knows that if a person has a fever, he will feel very uncomfortable, not to mention that in addition to the fever, he also has vomiting and diarrhea. So what should I do if my child has vomiting, diarrhea and fever?

What to do if your child is vomiting, having diarrhea and having a fever:

1. Take with fresh ginger juice.

Fresh ginger can warm the stomach, dispel cold and stop vomiting. It can be cut into slices and chewed. If it is freshly squeezed into juice and taken with water (you can add some hot water), the anti-vomiting effect will be better, but the anti-diarrhea effect is limited. It is a symptomatic treatment method and is effective for mild vomiting and diarrhea caused by cold.

2. The method of warming the meridians, dispelling cold and relieving pain can also be used for local warm compresses.

Just use a hot water bottle or Evodia rutaecarpa hot compress pack to warm the navel, or apply massage while applying the acupoints below the xiphoid process or Zhongwan. You can make the Evodia rutaecarpa hot compress pack yourself. First, make a double-layer cloth bag, mix 250 grams of Evodia rutaecarpa and 250 grams of coarse salt, put it in, and seal it. Heat it in the microwave for 3 to 5 minutes before each use, then take it out and use it for external application. But be careful to test its temperature and don't overheat it.

3. Home moxibustion.

You can select acupoints such as Shenque, Guanyuan, Zhongwan, Pishu, Zusanli, etc., and use gentle moxibustion method, with each moxibustion lasting about 10 to 20 minutes.

4. Home medication.

Experts recommend that readers always keep some Chinese patent medicines at home. One is Huoxiang Zhengqi Pills (or oral liquid), which is suitable for vomiting and diarrhea caused by summer heat and dampness; the other is Tongrentang’s Shengui Lizhong Pills, which is suitable for abdominal pain and vomiting and diarrhea caused by cold and dampness.
