Patient's question:
Baby has a bowel movement 5 times a day... Yellow and watery. Previous treatment and effectiveness: Smecta examination, detailed test results: viral. What kind of assistance is needed: Besides congee, what other foods can be eaten... Can some vitamin C be taken?...Doctor's answer:
Increased intestinal motility, often accompanied by bloating in the intestines, can exacerbate nausea and vomiting, so foods that cause bloating must be avoided. Milk can cause bloating in the intestines after consumption, so it is not advisable to eat it. Legume substances and legume products, such as soybeans, mung beans, green beans, broad beans, tofu, vermicelli, and bean sprouts, should be avoided because they contain rough fiber and rich protein, which can increase intestinal movement and cause bloating, further intensifying nausea and vomiting.Ginger tea (3 grams of green tea and 3 grams of dried ginger steeped in 150 milliliters of water, then served freely) or ginger congee (5 grams of ginger and 30 grams of pork cooked into congee with an adequate amount of water, then seasoned with a little sugar and salt, to be consumed twice daily) have the effects of dispelling cold and stopping diarrhea. Carrot juice (250 grams of fresh carrots, washed and chopped, added to a pot with 3 grams of fine salt and an appropriate amount of water, cooked until soft, then squeezed for juice, to be taken 2-3 times daily) has the effects of strengthening the spleen, aiding digestion, and stopping diarrhea, making it suitable for spleen deficiency-type diarrhea.
The above suggestions are for the question "What foods should children eat when they have diarrhea?" and are hoped to be helpful to you. Wishing you good health!
