Patient's question:
The baby is still small, having diarrhea and defecating 78 times a day, with a gurgling stomach. How should the baby with diarrhea be treated at seven months old?Doctor's answer:
Hello, if your baby has been exclusively breastfed and has had diarrhea consistently, could it be lactose intolerance? It might be difficult to eliminate, but when introducing complementary foods initially, it's possible to experience intestinal discomfort again. However, it generally improves within about a week. Pay attention to providing food at a moderate pace. From a TCM perspective, it's considered spleen deficiency. Children have weaker immune systems, so they are more prone to various illnesses. For parents, don't be hasty. It's important to take your child to a regular hospital for examination and treatment promptly. Avoid administering medication to your baby blindly.
