Patient's question:
My daughter hasn't been eating well since two days ago. The child doesn't have a fever, but I always hear the child's stomach making gurgling sounds. The child's bowel movements are quite loose and yellow in color. The child had three bowel movements two days ago and four yesterday. Is this a case of diarrhea?Doctor's answer:
Hello, the main manifestations of infantile diarrhea are:1. Increased frequency of bowel movements, with loose, yellow-green watery stools, resembling egg drop soup, which may contain mucus and blood.
2. Fever, poor spirits.
3. Vomiting.
4. Thirst and sunken eyes when dehydration occurs.
5. In severe cases, rapid breathing and coma.
