Patient's question:
The child has been living in Shanghai and recently returned to their hometown. However, after coming home, they developed diarrhea within three or four days. They visited a doctor in their hometown and received injections and intravenous drips, but it has been over 20 days now, and their condition has not improved. I would like to consult about this.Doctor's answer:
When traveling, if the infant experiences diarrhea due to, please seek medical attention promptly at a reputable hospital. Take some anti-diarrheal medication, and try to avoid feeding the infant high-protein or hard-to-digest foods. Instead, consume more fruits, vegetables, and water to prevent dehydration. During the infant's diarrhea, probiotic supplements can be given to aid digestion, regulate the infant's gut microbiota, and balance the digestive system. It is also appropriate to give the infant easily digestible and nutritious foods such as yogurt or rice soup.
