Patient's question:
A child has had diarrhea for 4 days. It started as thick, then became loose, and now it's watery.Previous treatment and effectiveness: Used children's paracetamol and chuanxindan granules, children's cough granules, and Montmorillonite powder. Also received injections.
What help is needed: Can they drink milk?
Doctor's answer:
The baby has diarrhea, and it's currently watery, indicating that the baby's gastrointestinal digestion and absorption function is problematic and needs to be adjusted. You can take pediatric compound pepsin to regulate absorption, which works well. Focus on taking Montmorillonite powder, and avoid milk for now. It's recommended not to overeat greasy food, as it may lead to diarrhea in the baby. Give the baby more water. It's suggested to go to a regular hospital for a check-up, test the stool, and see if there is any intestinal inflammation. If there is, some anti-inflammatory medication will be needed.
