Patient's question:
4 months and more have been experiencing diarrhea for more than ten days, with foam present and a slightly greenish color. From two and a half months, the parents started feeding the child with apples using a small spoon at home, but within a few days, the child developed persistent diarrhea. Previous treatment and effectiveness: White blood cell count was 0-1, and medications such as Smecta, Beik, Cephalosporin, Amoxicillin granules, and Mamai were administered, along with massage therapy, but none showed any improvement. The assistance needed: Seeking advice from experts on what I should do?Doctor's answer:
Under normal circumstances, it is recommended to take Mimi Ai and Smecta for treatment. The dosage of Smecta can be increased. For mild to moderate nausea and vomiting, oral rehydration therapy is usually sufficient. Nausea and vomiting caused by viral gastroenteritis or indigestion should not be treated with antibiotics, as antibiotics are not only ineffective but also kill the normal intestinal flora, leading to dysbiosis and exacerbating nausea and vomiting.
