Stomach virus

What should I give my 4 year old to make him feel better? What food are best? He has had diarrhea for a 3 days but it was better yesterday. The first day he was throwing up, I gave him ginger tea and crackers and it didn't happen again until today in bed  

Hopefully he will eat some Yogurt any kind with the Active live cultures in it- It puts back the good bacteria that are lost during vomiting and diarrhea !

I eat lots of plain stuff. Toast, chicken broth etc. I would also throw in some pedialite for him since its been so long. Those things typically have to run their course.

Dairy might upset his stomach, though.

Typically, the BRAT diet is recommended, since it's bland (bananas, applesauce, rice, toast). Also, I'd suggest Pedialyte, to replace the electrolytes lost with the diarrhea.

Thanks, that is what I thought. I gave him a tablespoon of honey and a bit powder cinnamon and he didn't vomit again.
