[|Human|] Hi, my 3 year old started vomiting this morning and has on and off all day. He has had sinus/allergy symptoms for the last week or so and his vomiting had had lots of mucus in it. He had a cup of watered down apple juice first thing this morning and nothing since.... so at this point he is having the thick, uncomfortable vomiting. I know with typical vomiting/virus it is recommended to not eat/drink until going 2 hours. Are there any tips / recommendations for if this is the phlegm causing the upset stomach and vomiting?? He has been pretty lethargic today though too,, no fever.
[|AI|]  Regarding your concern. I would say there is no rule that nothing should be given for 2 Hours as anyone would have told you for being safe. If there is no vomiting you can give fluids which is not too acidic like lime juice, and it could be viral or bacterial infection. I would observe him for any more symptoms and check his general condition, chest & throat and would do a CBC and treat him for viral at first and start antibiotic if I feel there is bacterial infection, Discuss with your doctor.
