What should I do if I have diarrhea and vomiting symptoms when I am just a month old?

Patient's question:

Hello! My daughter is almost two months old. When she was just a month old, she had symptoms of diarrhea and vomiting. After a week of hospital treatment, her condition improved, and she was discharged. However, at home, she occasionally still has diarrhea (manifesting as curd-like consistency and increased frequency). Is it suitable to use probiotics? Can it help? I am anxiously awaiting your reply. Thank you, thank you!

Doctor's answer:

This is a common case of gastroenteritis. More water. Less milk. Infant diarrhea can be caused by two reasons. One is overeating. The characteristic is finishing eating quickly after vomiting. It may also occur concurrently with diarrhea and you may see a milk valve. The second is a cold. Indigestion. There may be a milk valve. Because the child is young. The cause is uncertain. It is recommended to see a pediatrician. It is recommended to go to the hospital for further examination and treatment. Under the guidance of a doctor, medication and treatment should be used.
