Patient's question:
A five-month-old baby has diarrhea. The symptoms keep coming and going during medication. What's going on? At first, it seemed better on the third day, but then it became watery again on the fourth day. What's happening? Is this normal? The medication hasn't been stopped.Doctor's answer:
Based on the information you provided, it is inferred that the baby has diarrhea. While medication is being administered, the key focus should be on preventing cold exposure, dietary adjustment, and temporarily avoiding solid foods. The mother should also focus on dietary adjustment, consuming light and easily digestible liquid foods as the foundation, avoiding greasy and irritating foods, and avoiding extremely cold foods. A routine stool test should be conducted to rule out other conditions. Oral probiotics can be taken, or probiotic therapy can be administered. If necessary, acupuncture treatment in the pediatric acupuncture department may be considered. The above suggestions are for this issue. It is hoped that it will be helpful to you. Wishing you good health!
