Patient's question:
Duration of onset and persistence of the illness: Already four days.Current general condition: Received intravenous fluids for the first three days! Doesn't seem to be improving much! Whatever they eat, it comes out in their stool! They seem better when they don't eat! Could it be bacterial infection in the intestines? What medications or methods can be used for treatment? What can children with diarrhea eat?
Doctor's answer:
Your child's condition is suspected to be caused by unclean diet. It is recommended to go to the hospital for a stool routine test. You can take Smecta to stop diarrhea and Ji Ne Jin to aid digestion, and follow a light diet. It is advisable to consult a pediatrician for a definitive diagnosis. If applicable, oral Mamiai or Smecta combined with oral rehydration solution can be used, along with Xiao Er Zhi Xie Granules, and applied with Ding Gui Qi Tie externally. If the condition is severe, intravenous fluid therapy should be administered under the guidance of a doctor. It is recommended to let the baby drink more water to prevent dehydration, maintain a light diet, and consume liquid foods to reduce the burden on the gastrointestinal tract. Your baby's diarrhea can be treated with Smecta and Zheng Chang Sheng. If the symptoms do not improve, it is advisable to receive intravenous fluid therapy to prevent electrolyte imbalance.
