Patient's question:
The child has been crying non-stop recently and hasn't been eating much. Could you please tell me what could be the reason for a 3-year-old experiencing frequent stomach upsets and diarrhea?Doctor's answer:
Hello, if a child has diarrhea, the first consideration should be indigestion, intestinal inflammation, or exposure to cold. The first step is to 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 Growth, and may also consider giving them a cephalosporin antibiotic. If the diarrhea is severe and the medication is ineffective, it is necessary to start intravenous treatment promptly. Additionally, it is important to give the child plenty of warm water and gently massage their abdomen.
