Patient's question:
My baby is eight months old. Lately, he has been having diarrhea frequently, with watery and foamy stools that have a sour smell. A few days ago, I gave him Diarrhea Powder, which worked for two days, but then I stopped giving him any medication. However, after two days without medication, the diarrhea is still the same, and I’m very worried and don’t know what to do.Doctor's answer:
Hello, based on your description, it is likely caused by enteritis. You can have your baby's stool tested for a routine examination, and consider anti-inflammatory treatment. You can give your baby Cefixime granules for oral suspension and Smecta to try. Make sure your baby drinks plenty of water and gradually recovers. Additionally, maintain hygiene in the anal area by rinsing with warm water to avoid the occurrence of eczema.
