Patient's question:
A 6-month-old child began experiencing diarrhea on 1/27 and was treated on 1/28. Stool tests were normal, and the diagnosis was indigestion. The child was given "Mimie Ai" and "Smecta," but the medication was not taken continuously. The child felt the effect was not good. The last two days, the stool was yellow and egg-like, and on 1/30, the night stool was yellow and watery with a large amount. The child has been sleeping more and has poor appetite. Please provide help. Thank you very much!!Doctor's answer:
You can continue using "Mama Ai" and "Simida," pay attention to feeding. For breastfeeding mothers, it is recommended to eat less greasy food, drink more water to dilute the milk, and shorten the duration of each breastfeeding session. For formula-fed infants, stop feeding cow's milk and switch to skim milk or rice soup. For severely vomiting and diarrhea patients, temporarily fast for 6 to 8 hours. After vomiting stops, oral rehydration salt solution can be given.
