Patient's question:
The child is five months old. The first three days, their throat was a bit hoarse, and there was some phlegm in their throat. The next day, they also had a bit of diarrhea.Doctor's answer:
Hello, if a child has diarrhea, the first consideration should be indigestion, intestinal inflammation, or exposure to cold. It's important to first diagnose the cause. If the child only has simple diarrhea and is in good spirits, you can give them some Lactobacillus casei or a probiotic preparation, or take Intestinal Regulator. You can also add a course of cephalosporin antibiotics. Once the diarrhea becomes severe and medication is ineffective, it's necessary to promptly start intravenous treatment.
