A member asked:

Son has stomach flu, 1 day vomiting, 3 days diahorrea now bad gas but is only having small bursts of energy and its 4 days later. should i be worried about his lack of energy and is there something i can give to help is this normal?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Not particularly: Any such illness can drain their energy which is re-directed to healing during recovery. Small bursts of energy is a good sign. Focus on fluid support & easily digested foods . Applesauce is a good fluid/energy source that slows diarrhea.Bananas, rice, breads also aid recovery. The process often lasts a week or more.
