Patient's question:
The baby has had diarrhea for two days. The doctor at the hospital said it was a viral infection, gave two injections, and prescribed medication. At the time, it felt better, but at night, the baby kept crying. When we went to the hospital again in the morning, the doctor said it was stomach pain and gave another injection. It felt better then, but before we even got home, the baby started crying again. With no other option, we went to another hospital, where the check-up revealed the baby had a fever. They gave two bottles of IV fluids, and after returning home, the baby felt much better. But just as we were about to go to sleep, the baby had another bowel movement, and it was all watery. What should we do?Doctor's answer:
Child diarrhea is primarily caused by bacterial infection or improper diet, leading to a clinical diagnosis syndrome characterized by nausea and vomiting. Your child's condition has not fully recovered yet, and medication treatment requires patience. You should also pay attention to your child's diet and drink water appropriately. Probiotics can be given to the child for treatment, while the mother should also pay attention to a lighter diet.
