Patient's question:
The baby has been three days now, but the first two days were not severe, just a bit loose stools. However, this morning, the baby had two loose stools, almost nothing in them, just yellow watery discharge with some foam. Yesterday, the child had a bit of a stuffy nose, so I gave them some compound granules, but the child is still a bit stuffy. Please advise what I should do now and what medicine I should give the child. Thank you.Doctor's answer:
15-month-old baby, nausea and vomiting, not severe for the past two days, just slightly loose stools. But this morning, they had two episodes of loose stools, almost all yellow watery, with some foam. No fever. It's suspected to be viral diarrhea caused by catching a cold, as the stool is watery and related to a cold, which is also a viral infection.Recommended antiviral treatment: Ribavirin granules or antiviral oral liquid, combined with Montmorillonite, B-complex, and pediatric cold granules and Gentamycin granules. Drink plenty of hot water, avoid greasy food, prevent catching a cold or cold drafts, and avoid crowded places.
