Patient's question:
Half a year old, hello! My son just started having diarrhea with a fever. I gave him oral Enteringning, Cephalosporin, and Smecta. Now he's not feverish anymore, but he's still having diarrhea. What should I do?Doctor's answer:
Medical Analysis: Hello, the baby has diarrhea and fever. Oral medications such as Chang Yan Ning and Cefixime have been taken, and the fever has subsided, but the diarrhea persists. Suggestions: The baby's condition is considered to be either gastroenteritis or acute enteritis. Has the baby eaten unclean food recently? If yes, the likelihood of acute enteritis is higher, and treatments such as Gentamicin or Lintetin and Cefixime may be needed. If the baby initially had symptoms like nasal congestion and runny nose, the likelihood of gastroenteritis is higher, and treatments such as Ribavirin granules or antiviral oral liquid + Montmorillonite should be used. If the baby has frequent or large amounts of diarrhea, oral rehydration solutions or intravenous fluids may be required to replenish electrolytes. A liquid and soft diet should be the main food, while greasy and spicy foods should be avoided. Wishing the baby a speedy recovery.
