How should dietary supplements be used for infant and young child diarrhea?

Patient's question:

After eating milk in the afternoon, about 10 minutes later, he started dry retching. When I went to the hospital for a follow-up visit, the doctor said it was due to a cold stomach and that avoiding milk formula and rice powder would be fine. However, in the evening, he still dry retched, so I went to the hospital again. After mentioning a needle-like symptom, the doctor said it was a respiratory infection (at that time, the child hadn't had diarrhea). He still advised avoiding milk formula but said the child could eat a stage one shung-milk powder. The doctor said to wait a day before drinking milk formula again. But after a day, when the child drank milk formula, he started having diarrhea. Now, I still don't know what to feed the child?

Doctor's answer:

Diarrhea, I still don't know what to feed the child now? Seeing the child's thinning body makes me very anxious. Now the child is slightly feverish, hiccuping, and having a runny nose—what should I do? (Medications available: Children's Paracetamol and Chlorpheniramine Granules, Ribavirin Granules, Amoxicillin Granules) Suggestions: This situation is likely caused by a viral infection. You can treat it with oral medications such as Virazole Granules, Anti-Diarrheal Granules, Qingkailing Granules, and Shifusai, which can achieve good results. At the same time, apply Baby Patch to the child's navel externally, which can help it recover quickly.
