Patient's question:
The baby is one and a half years old and has diarrhea that never gets better. IV drips, injections, and medication have no effect, and the diarrhea still persists. It's like watery eggs. I'm so worried. What should I do? First, medication. If it doesn't work, then injections plus medication still don't help. Finally, IV drips are tried, but it still doesn't work. The diarrhea is still like watery eggs. If there's one thing, the baby will be able to eat properly. I hope experts and doctors can help me.Doctor's answer:
A one-year-old baby has diarrhea, and there are two possible causes: 1. Poor digestion. 2. Intestinal inflammation. It is recommended to take the baby's stool to the hospital for testing. After diagnosis, symptomatic medication should be administered for treatment. Additionally, apply an umbilical patch to the baby's navel to help extend the interval between bowel movements and allow the digestive system to rest. Pay close attention to preventing colds and avoid getting chilled. Offer the baby more fluids to drink and focus on a light diet.
