What should I do if the baby has diarrhea and the medicine is not working?

Patient's question:

The baby has had diarrhea for four days, taking Montmorillonite and probiotics, but it's still ongoing. It's happening four to five times a day, sometimes watery with bubbles, and sometimes with curds. The first two days of the diarrhea, the baby had a fever of 38 degrees, but now the fever has gone down, and the diarrhea is still continuing. What should we do?

Doctor's answer:

I'm glad I can help you. For babies with diarrhea, please check the characteristics of their stool. Is it curdled milk-like watery stool or egg drop soup-like watery stool? If it's the former, it may be related to indigestion. If it's the latter, pay attention to rotavirus infection. The above advice is for the question "What should I do if my baby has diarrhea for four days and Montmorillonite powder and probiotics still don't help?" I hope it helps you. Wishing you good health!
