Patient's question:
Doctor, hello. The baby just turned one year old. Previously, there was nothing wrong, but recently, they have been having diarrhea every day, and their appetite has also decreased. What could be the reason? Is there a problem with the intestines? What are the common causes of infant diarrhea? I hope you can explain it in detail. Thank you.Doctor's answer:
The causes of children's diarrhea include catching a cold, overeating or consuming greasy food, acute gastroenteritis, and viral infections. Dingui'er Qitie can be used, which primarily consists of clove, cinnamon, and cardamom. It has a fragrant aroma and is effective in strengthening the spleen, warming the middle, dispelling cold, and stopping diarrhea. It can be used to treat symptoms such as pediatric diarrhea and abdominal pain. If necessary, seek medical attention promptly and have a routine fecal examination to identify the underlying cause.
