Baby is four and a half months old and has diarrhea

Patient's question:

At 3:30 in the morning, it started to run loose. On the evening of the 8th, we started giving her Mammi Ai, but it hasn't improved yet, and it's all foam-like. It seems like she's losing fluids. I'm questioning: 1. Was it due to inhaling cold air on the way back to Grandma's house on the 6th? 2. Did she get a muscle strain while being held? 3. Was it due to introducing complementary foods (rice porridge, freshly squeezed juice, teething biscuits)?
Previous treatment and effectiveness: She had had similar issues before, but drinking Mammi Ai had helped.
What kind of assistance is expected: We hope she can recover quickly, as we also need to take her for a BCG re-examination around the 24th.

Doctor's answer:

According to the situation you described, it is preliminarily considered that the child may have gastrointestinal dysfunction, such as enteritis, caused by irregular diet or catching a cold. It is recommended to conduct a detailed and thorough examination to confirm the diagnosis and actively treat the condition. In daily life, appropriate dietary habits should be maintained, and care should be enhanced. Attention should be paid to preventing abdominal coldness and avoiding cold dampness, while also digesting vitamin C, B vitamins, etc. In cases of severe nausea and vomiting, Simethicone and tannic acid protein should be used. For indigestion and foamy stools, pancreatin powder, Bifidumbacterium longum, and Lactobacillus should be administered. These measures should be combined with abdominal cold compresses, etc. If the patient is dehydrated, timely intravenous fluid therapy should be provided. Specific treatment should follow the guidance of the clinical diagnosis physician.
