Patient's question:
My daughter is now nine months old. Recently, she has had severe diarrhea. On the first day of the diarrhea, she vomited and had a fever, and she couldn't even drink formula milk. Later, we took her to the Third Hospital for intravenous drip, but it didn't get better. The doctor said she couldn't eat formula milk. Now she can't eat anything at all, and she also cries and fusses non-stop at night. Please ask, is there any medicine that can cure it?Doctor's answer:
Detected infant diarrhea, it is recommended to check and test whether it is indigestion or intestinal inflammation. Also, pay attention to whether it is caused by a cold leading to intestinal dysfunction. If it is indigestion, oral medications such as Shanmai Jianpi Koufuye and Smecta can be recommended. For severe cases, consult a doctor for intravenous treatment. Extend the interval between feedings to allow the stomach and intestines to rest. Increase fluid intake. If supplementary foods have been introduced, temporarily stop adding them or reduce the amount. Gradually resume adding supplementary foods once symptoms improve. In particular, avoid foods that are difficult to digest.
