Hello, folks. My child has serious nausea and vomitting. I took him to a pediatrician and he mentioned something about dehydration. I wonder whether dehydration can cause nausea and vomitting. What do you think? I will gladly hear out your opinions. Thanks to all who reply to my post. This will mean a lot to me.

Hi, there. Nausea and vomiting usually cause dehydration. That is if they last long. With excessive vomiting, a huge amount of body fluids can be lost. If the dehydration is severe, a patient must be hospitalized. The signs are: dry mucosa membranes and skin, no tears when child cries. These patients urinate small amounts of urine. It is good that you took your child to a pediatrician. He will know what to do next. I hope everything will be great. Good luck1
