Patient's question:
For over 10 days, he has had diarrhea accompanied by abdominal bloating. We have given him medication (Smectite combined with triple live lactobacilli) but the diarrhea persists. The child does not cry or fuss, is in good spirits, and has no fever.Previous treatment and effectiveness: He has been on medication for a few days (Smectite combined with triple live lactobacilli).
What kind of help is desired: We want to see immediate improvement in his current condition.
Doctor's answer:
Diarrhea in children is generally caused by viral or bacterial infections, rapid changes in climate, significant temperature differences, or exposure to cold, which can lead to increased intestinal peristalsis. It is recommended to conduct further detailed tests on the stool routine.Medical Advice: Treatment for indigestion can involve oral administration of Compound Pancreatin Powder for Children and Beiqu. These two medications should be taken with at least an hour interval between doses. If the condition is due to intestinal inflammation, additional medication such as Lilbo for Children may be required. Apply an umbilical patch (Fupitie) to the navel.
Pay attention to keeping the abdomen warm and ensure adequate fluid intake to prevent dehydration.
