Vomiting
Vomiting can be associated with viral infections. It may occur with nausea and a high fever. To manage gastrointestinal symptoms, parents and caregivers should limit eating options to bland foods to help children get the necessary nutrients while their body fights the infection.
In addition to paying close attention to the food children ingest, increase water intake to reduce the chances of dehydration, which is more common with a fever and vomiting.
