Patient's question:
My son vomited all day and got an injection, which stopped the vomiting. The next day, he started having diarrhea. What should I do? He is one year old and has diarrhea, with the stool looking like scrambled eggs. He's lacking energy.Past treatment and effectiveness: He vomited severely and vomited everything he ate. Even drinking water came back up shortly after. After three injections, the vomiting stopped, but now he has diarrhea.
Help needed: What should I do next?
Doctor's answer:
According to your description, your baby has had diarrhea for a week. The stool is like egg flower, and the baby is lacking energy. It is generally considered to be caused by indigestion. The baby's diarrhea is in the shape of egg flower soup, very smelly, and after drinking formula milk, it has a bowel movement after a while, without vomiting. It is recommended to give the baby some probiotics and use umbilical patches. Pay attention to drinking more water, and feeding millet porridge is very good (cook the millet porridge for a longer time for the baby, it is strongly recommended for strengthening the spleen, with excellent effects). Or you can steam some apple water for the baby to drink. Apple water has a soothing effect and can alleviate the severity of the baby's diarrhea. Pay attention to preventing abdominal cold to increase intestinal peristalsis.
