The signs and symptoms could include nausea, vomiting, burning epigastric pain, belching or gaseous eructation. The upset stomach could be due to GERD or gastroesophageal reflux disease (black-flow of acid contents of the stomach through the esophagus to the back of the throat).
Remedy - Eat several smaller meals during the day. Lie down only after 3-4 hours of eating. Elevate the head of the bed. Acid neutralizing drugs. Plenty of fluids and rest.

The pediatricians recommend young kids to restart a normal diet as the bland foods are not rich in nutrients. They should take recommended fruits, vegetables, yogurt and carbohydrates. Drink plenty of fluids to prevent dehydration. Consult a physician if the diarrhea does not resolve even after three days or a body temperature of 102 degrees or high or a decrease in urine output.
