Patient's question:
I've had diarrhea for about 20 days now. I've seen a doctor and had an enema, but it's been getting better and worse. Over the past few days, I've been taking Smecta Montmorillonite Powder, and for one day it felt a bit better, but now it's started again. At its worst, I've had 7 or 8 bowel movements a day. What kind of assistance would you like:Hello, what's going on? Is this autumnal nausea and vomiting? Will focusing on drinking Smecta work? What are the side effects if I drink too much? What should I do?
Doctor's answer:
Hello: I believe your baby's nausea and vomiting are caused by indigestion, as the gastrointestinal function of infants and young children is not yet fully developed, making them prone to recurring indigestion. I suggest giving your baby oral Domperidone and Bifidumbacterium infantis, drinking plenty of warm water, and feeding breast milk in small amounts and multiple times to prevent overeating. The mother should eat light and easily digestible foods, avoiding extremely cold, hard, and spicy foods that are irritating. You can provide your baby with supplementary foods such as rice porridge and egg yolk, which have a soothing effect on diarrhea. Pay attention to keeping your baby warm and preventing them from catching a cold, especially in the abdomen. I hope my explanation will be helpful to you.
