The condition of children who look more weak than usual, reluctant to eat or urinate must be watched out for a serious dehydration, especially if accompanied by nausea and recurring vomiting.The cause can be due to infection, food poisoning, or side effects of drugs such as antibiotics that affect the digestive tract.
In some cases, nausea and vomiting can be a sign of other diseases such as ear infections, migraines, or disorders of the central nervous system.One of the biggest risks of recurrent vomiting is dehydration, the condition when the fluid that comes out of the body is more than the one entering.
In children, dehydration can develop faster than adults and often not recognized from the start.For this reason, remember to immediately bring children to children’s service facilities with the presence of 24-hour On-Site Pediatricians, such as to Mayapada Hospital in South Jakarta.
“At mild to moderate stages, symptoms of dehydration in children can be in the form of dry mouth and lips, reduced frequency of urine with more thick urine, concave eyes, dry and less elastic skin, and children look thirsty, fussy, or more often sleepy,” said specialist pediatric specialist (child) consultant liver & gastrointestinal digestibility.Eva Jeumpa Soelaeman, Sp.A, Subsp G.H (K).
Dr.Eva said, the next symptom shows the child who also does not shed tears when crying, the crown is concave, the skin feels very dry and cold, and a fast heartbeat.
“At the severe dehydration stage, your child will look very weak, confused, difficult to wake up, and his breathing becomes fast and deep, not even urinating for more than 6-8 hours in infants or 12 hours in larger children,” said Dr.Eva.
Easy to suffer vomiting is one of the easiest ways to recognize symptoms.For mild symptoms, children can be given fluid little by little and soft food if they are still able to eat.
“However, if nausea and vomiting lasts a long time and accompanied by a sign of dehydration, immediately take it to the hospital for evaluation. Without proper treatment, dehydration can cause electrolyte, seizures, even shock,” said Dr.Eva.
When the child’s condition starts to deteriorate, stay calm and immediately take it to
