13-month-old infant, vomiting and diarrhea, is it dehydration?

Patient's question:

Yesterday after the child ate, they suddenly had non-stop diarrhea. The millet porridge they drank came out exactly as it was. They went to the clinic for treatment.

Doctor's answer:

Hello, if a child has diarrhea, the first consideration should be indigestion, intestinal inflammation, or exposure to cold. It is important to first diagnose the cause. If the child only has simple diarrhea and is in good spirits, you can give them some Lactobacillus casei or a probiotic preparation, or take Intestinal Growth, and can also add a course of cephalosporin antibiotics. Once the diarrhea becomes severe and medication is ineffective, it is necessary to promptly start intravenous treatment.
