are acute gastroenteritis and dehydration is related to each other? yes
how? read the information in the web links i provided for you below. you will find the answers there.
i read that acute gastroenteritis is inflammation of stomach and intestine. is it true? yes. the fact that the word gastroenteritis ends with -itis tells you there is an inflammation present.
can you give another easy and simplest explanation for this. no, you need to read other authors and see what they have to say. they will provide you with other explanations. refer to a dictionary if you are having difficulty understanding the english.
what are common the causes of having acute gastroenteritis? see the weblinks below, especially the articles from emedicine.
