Patient's question:
My daughter has had diarrhea for four days, with ten episodes a day, and she hasn't been feverish. I took her to the hospital for a stool test, and it wasn't bacterial or viral. What help do I need: What should I do?Doctor's answer:
Your baby's condition is likely to be nausea and vomiting in the autumn. We say that a negative stool test does not necessarily rule out bacterial or viral infections. The main basis for clinical diagnosis is the symptoms. Generally, children are more prone to catching rotavirus during this season, which can cause nausea and vomiting. Regarding your child's condition, I recommend taking measures to prevent dehydration. It is advisable to take pediatric physiological oral rehydration salts for prevention or treatment of dehydration. It is recommended to eat light, warm, small meals frequently with easily digestible food.
