Patient's question:
My child has been experiencing recurrent diarrhea for a year, and it couldn't be cured no matter where we went. Later, we found out that he is allergic to protein. Now he is two years and three months old, and he has two to three bowel movements a day. The stools are normal, but there is a layer of mucus-like substance outside.Doctor's answer:
Mainly, it is considered that the current discomfort symptoms are caused by intestinal mucosal damage in children. For such issues, it is recommended to conduct a targeted and thorough examination, including a routine stool test, to determine the best course of action. Based on the examination results, the next treatment steps should be confirmed. The treatment should primarily focus on targeted anti-inflammatory and digestive aid therapy. It is also advisable to give the child probiotics to help regulate their digestive system. At the same time, it is best to avoid protein-rich foods and gradually transition to a more suitable diet, slowly desensitizing the child to see how much improvement can be achieved.
