Patient's question:
My son has been experiencing vomiting and diarrhea with high fever since last Saturday. Now the fever has subsided, but his bowel movements have not improved. How can I make a homemade sugar saline solution? Thank youDoctor's answer:
During the baby's diarrhea, timely replenishment of fluids is one of the most urgent and important tasks. The loss of fluids is fierce and rapid. If the baby remains in a dehydrated state for a long time, it will hinder the body's normal metabolism, making the situation very unfavorable and making it difficult for the baby to recover. Mothers can feed the baby some carrot water or low-sugar juice that the baby usually likes to avoid dehydration. In addition to replenishing fluids, nutrition also needs to be supplemented. Don't give the baby nothing to eat just because of diarrhea. Congee, potato puree, ripe apple puree, etc., are all foods that the baby can digest. However, some greasy foods have a high fat content, and the baby neither has a appetite nor can digest them, which can easily cause a burden on the baby. For these types of foods, it is necessary to truly avoid them.
