Doctor's answer:
Hello, according to your description, it can be considered that the child may have acute gastroenteritis. It is recommended to conduct a detailed examination and actively treat the condition. First, rational feeding should be ensured, nursing should be strengthened, abdominal warmth should be paid attention to, and cold dampness should be avoided. Nutritional intake should be increased, and vitamin supplementation should be provided. Symptomatic treatment should be supplemented, such as using Montmorillonite powder for diarrhea, and 6542 for abdominal pain and bowel sounds. If accompanied by indigestion and abdominal distension, Lactobacillus and pancreatin powder should be used. In severe cases, intravenous fluid should be administered. Specific treatment should follow the guidance of clinical physicians. The above information is for reference.
