Patient's question:
Diarrhea for 3 days, dry in the morning upon waking, 5-6 times during the day, yellow, sometimes entirely watery. Beichuan Qiang Autonomous County People's Hospital, PediatricsDoctor's answer:
Suggestion:1. Continue breastfeeding. Gradually reintroduce complementary foods that were added before the diarrhea, but avoid high-sugar, high-fat, and high-fiber foods for now.
2. Oral rehydration: If oral rehydration salts are available, use them. If not, use broth or rice water mixed with a small amount of salt. Give a little after each loose bowel movement until the diarrhea stops.
3. Medication: Continue using probiotics and add zinc supplements. If the child has no fever, is in good spirits, has a normal appetite, and no mucus or blood in the stool, antibiotics are not needed.
