[|Human|] My baby has vomited twice and had diarrhea daily in the last four days and now her breath smells like bleach. Is this normal or is something seriously wrong? Shes teething right now and the gum has a depressed slit where the tooth will come but it isnt showing yet if that has anything to do with it.
[|AI|]  Hi. Welcome to Chat Doctor . I have gone through your query and can understand your concerns. As per your complaint vomiting and mild diarrhea can occur during teething but in case if there is severe diarrhea and vomiting and bad smell then it can be probably due to infection in stomach, and it needs to be evaluated by a Pediatrician. A slit or depression on the gum in the teething stage is due to tearing of the gum to facilitate tooth eruption and although the tooth is not showing up you should wait and watch for about a month so that the tooth can erupt. If there is pain in the gums then applying numbing gel containing Lidocaine can help. Do cool compresses over the gums. Feed her with a soft diet if she is above 6 months and along with it maintain a good oral hygiene to prevent infection. Hope this information helps. Thanks and regards. Chat Doctor. .
