How to cure food poisoning at home?

Question
Doctor, my nephew sometimes has mild digestive disorders, I usually adjust his diet and he is back to normal and does not need to take medicine. Yesterday, I went to eat with my friends and had abdominal pain and vomiting. I let her lie down and continue to exchange porridge with soup for her to digest easily. But recently, especially since the summer break, every few weeks, it only takes 2-3 days to go away. I am wondering if it is because I have not properly treated my own poisoning at home, causing him not to be treated completely or not? Ask your doctor for advice on how to treat food poisoning at home and what to watch out for! Sincerely thank the doctor.

Answer
To treat illness at home when you have food poisoning, you need to give your child more rest and rehydrate with oresol properly (must drink properly, mix the right ratio, the medicine will work for children). spoon by spoon, older children drink by sip).
Do not share dishes and utensils, drink water to avoid your child being infected with other diseases as well as infecting others (because of poor resistance).
Eat lighter while sick.
If the disease recurs continuously, it is necessary to change the habits of safe eating and food hygiene. (Absolutely Do not go to restaurants), if after a period of implementation, it is no longer continued, it is due to a change in good living habits.
If it doesn't go away, you need to go to the doctor to find the cause.
