Patient's question:
An infant who is only 20 days old has diarrhea about 10 times a day, with yellow stools that appear to contain mucus-like substances. It has been 7 days so far.Doctor's answer:
Analysis of the condition: Hello, this situation is highly likely to be considered as autumnal diarrhea (rotavirus enteritis).Suggestions: Since it has been 7 days, it is recommended to have a stool routine examination at the hospital and receive timely symptomatic treatment. If there are signs of dehydration (fever, poor mental state, repeated vomiting, etc.), it is important to promptly administer fluid therapy to avoid chronic diarrhea and its impact on nutritional growth and development.
