What help is desired: The anus is much better. Why is the diarrhea not improving? What medication should be taken?
Doctor's answer:
The child is experiencing nausea and vomiting again, which may indicate viral gastroenteritis, primarily caused by rotavirus infection. The severity of symptoms varies; severe nausea and vomiting can lead to dehydration, and in some cases, it may develop into viral pneumonia. It is recommended to drink plenty of warm water, avoid catching colds, and refrain from eating very cold foods. Avoid consuming overly sweet foods. Medications such as Ribavirin granules, Baoji oral liquid, and Montmorillonite powder can be taken. If dehydration is severe, intravenous fluid therapy may be necessary. Wishing the baby a speedy recovery.
