If gastroenteritis does not cause serious nausea and vomiting, you do not need to fast. If gastroenteritis causes serious nausea and vomiting, you generally have to fast for 1-2 days and it is not recommended to ban drinking. If it is caused by canine coronavirus or canine parvovirus infection, it is recommended to fast for 3-5 days.
For this problem, there are no rigid requirements, generally no more than one day. The first step for everyone is to understand where the method of fasting is to cut off water, and what is the purpose of doing better. In fact, this method is called hunger therapy. Generally, when prey vomits, if there is no sufficient diagnosis and treatment standard, it is possible to give anti-emetic drugs or cure diarrhea. In order to better avoid re-intake of food and water, it will stimulate the digestive system to cause more serious vomiting symptoms and cause burning of the upper gastrointestinal tract, and the basic anti-diarrhea plan is implemented.
The primary goal of a plan such as fasting method is to better gain a lot of time, immediately take the dog to areas with diagnosis and treatment standards, carry out scientific and standardized inspections, diagnosis and treatment. Instead of curing digestive diseases based on fasting, treating oneself is a whole process of active attack. Fasting method, such as water cutting, can only be effectively applied under the appropriate premise. If the application is unreasonable, it will not only achieve the therapeutic effect, but will make the condition worse and worse.
Because nausea, vomiting and diarrhea are clinical symptoms of gastroenteritis, these two diseases are also very likely to cause dryness, and the dog will lose dryness. It is undoubtedly unexpected that the water cuts off at this time. During the illness period, a large amount of energy must be used to resist the disease. If you do not take food to fill your energy, it is very likely that the human body will decline.
At the same time, if the digestive system does not intake food for a long time, the digestive system mucosa will decline, greatly reducing the digestibility of food. This very likely secondary condition is usually more risky than gastroenteritis.
