Patient's question:
The baby is 7 months old. The doctor said it's autumnal diarrhea. Today is the 4th day of applying the ointment, and no other medicine has been used, but the baby is still having egg-like, watery stools. The baby is very lethargic every day and has been sleeping a lot today, taking several naps. How can the baby endure this?Doctor's answer:
Based on the situation you described, it is likely that the nausea and vomiting in the autumn are caused by rotavirus infection, and there are basically no effective drugs to treat this virus. For anorexia, it is often considered to be caused by dehydration. It is recommended to take oral rehydration salts or receive intravenous fluids at the hospital to correct dehydration. It is advised to pay attention to a proper diet in daily life, avoid spicy and cold foods, have regular meals, and not overwork. If your mental state is poor, it is recommended to receive intravenous fluids at the hospital.
