[|Human|] Hi! My child is 2yrs old and just had the Gastro bug. She had a very intense strain, as she vomited for 28hrs straight and then had a fever And diarrhea for two days following the vomiting. She woke up this morning feeling much better and no fever but every time she lays on her back she starts to scream and clench her fist and point her toes and say she is falling. Could this be related to an inner ear infection or something else?
[|AI|]  Welcome to the ChatDoctorI have gone through your question, and it seems that your child had suffered a bad gastroenteritis episode. Many a time due to improper replacement of electrolytes during gastroenteritis, a child can have dyselectrolemia such as sodium and potassium imbalance. These can be the cause of her present clinical situation.Don't worry as we see such patients regularly at our clinics as pediatrician. You need to go for laboratory work up for serum sodium and potassium levels. Thereafter, you may start her on oral rely Chat Doctor.  You may follow up with us with the reports. I will be happy to help you out in case of any further information on this. Hopefully this will help you. Take care
