Initially dietary management - no milk no cheese no dairy products maintain clear fluid
Small amount of bland food at a time. If he have tonsillitis, he might vomit, too.
Hi, for stomach virus the treatment depends on the symptoms, like vomiting and the stomachache. For either symptoms, a diet free of fat and high sugar is important. Also a good hydration is the key for those patients vomiting. Medication for vomiting and pain is also recommended.
What your grandma would tell you - plenty of liquids and TLC.
You can give something for vomiting phenergan , zofran or emetrol, clear liquids and watch for signs of dehydration. If this occurs he needs to be seen immediately.
