Patient's question:
My child is 4 years old this year. Lately, he has been coughing, and in the past two days, it has improved slightly, but he has been vomiting and having diarrhea. Today, the stool he passed was black, and sometimes it was yellow and runny.Treatment history and effectiveness: The doctor prescribed anti-inflammatory medication, and the medication helped.
What assistance is needed: How should I care for my child? What should I pay attention to in terms of diet?
Doctor's answer:
The child's cough has been treated, but due to the interference of anti-inflammatory drugs, gastrointestinal reactions may recur. Sometimes it is drug-induced nausea and vomiting. It will gradually improve over time.Recommendation: You can take some Mamiao. It helps digest the vitamins and minerals lacking in the child's body and contains beneficial intestinal bacteria to regulate the gut flora. You should eat easily digestible foods, such as steamed buns, noodles, and millet-green bean porridge. It is best to avoid fatty foods like stewed meat for now and reduce intake of extremely cold foods. For example, fruits should be eaten in moderation, as watermelon may easily cause nausea and vomiting.
The above advice is for the question "How should children with diarrhea be cared for?" I hope it helps you. Wishing you good health!
