Patient's question:
My daughter is one year old, bottle-fed, and has a bowel movement once a day. Every time she stays in her rural hometown (her hometown drinks spring water from the mountains), she has diarrhea for a few days after staying there for a few days, with 5-7 episodes of loose stools each day, and she has a bowel movement immediately after eating anything. Advice, what is the reason, what should I do?Doctor's answer:
Is it not suitable for the water there? Found the child has diarrhea, it is recommended to check and test the stool to see if it is indigestion or intestinal inflammation. Also, pay attention to whether it is caused by a cold leading to intestinal dysfunction. If severe, see a doctor for intravenous treatment, extend the interval between feedings to let the stomach and intestines rest, and drink more water. If adding complementary foods, it should be paused or reduced. Gradually restore after improvement, especially avoiding indigestible foods.
