Patient's question:
The son was born last year. He is now almost two years old, but his health isn't very good. The infant diarrhea hasn't improved, and as a first-time mother, I don't know how to handle it. Even after seeing a doctor, it hasn't gotten better. I don't know what medicine to take. What kind of food can the child normally eat to avoid this situation?Doctor's answer:
Hello! The long-term diarrhea in infants cannot recover and may lead to symptoms such as electrolyte imbalance, decreased urine output, poor mental health, and lethargy. You can use some probiotics to help the baby adapt. If there is no improvement, it is necessary to go to the hospital to check the stool to rule out bacterial infection, rotavirus infection, or lactose intolerance. Symptomatic treatment must be administered, rational medication should be used, and attention should be paid to preventing colds by keeping warm.
